My family is very musical, I was surrounded by it. And from four years old I was the one that asked my mother could I take piano lessons.

I've always followed politics, and I think politics is everybody's business because we're electing someone who's going to be making important decisions that will affect all of our lives.

I always felt that rap didn't cause crime; it just reflected it.

At the end of the day, there's only a few major stars in the music business, and then there's all these people that are aspiring to be that.

Musicians are in-season all the time.

I feel like my job is to make impact, spread love, tell great stories, inspire people, that's what I am going to do.

I think writers are prone to hyperbole sometimes.
