I'm not going to run for office. I don't think that's the right move for me.

In my neighborhood in Springfield, Ohio, there were a lot of young kids. We all played tackle football after school, but I knew very early on that I was not an athlete.

I want to make a better record than I made the last time. I want to grow. I want to discover new things about myself creatively.

I always saw myself as a singer-songwriter, a solo-artist, that's why working with other artists was never satisfying for me.

For me I'm actually doing what I normally do when I do my solo thing and the other thing is actually more new to me.

Sometimes I just think people are haters. And if they're haters, you can listen to what they have to say but you have to take it with a grain of salt.

I believed in myself and I am a firm believer you have to think the things you want and visualize.
