In pop music, you say, 'You can do what you want to me.' Rock 'n' roll says, 'I'm gonna do what I want to you.'

When I met you you were oh so sweet, now you give me the bread and you take all the meat.

One of the mistakes I made was believing that the rock 'n' roll genre as a genre was much more free than the whole pop or R&B scene.

I think it's what the times are demanding. If you're talking about the popular artists, they collaborate with a lot of different people and it seems to be in vogue now. It probably is indicative of the times.

Before I settled on music, I wanted to be an archaeologist, an astronaut, all sorts of really diverse things.

I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.

People like to tear you down. People are always going to take shots. You've just got to go for it.
