I feel like I'm a quick learner and I'm also very quick to forget. That's why I can't play an instrument because I can't bloody remember it.

People will download the music for free and they'll pay for it if they want to give you a compliment. They don't have to pay for it. And the only way the artist can make money was by touring 'cause the record label didn't take that money. Unfortunately now, cause the record company's not making money from the downloads, now they want to take money away from everything.

Love #music. It will #love you back.

It's like, 'You're not allowed to change. That's not fair. We like you like this.' But I don't. So let me expand and express myself.

People started saying I was ignoring my country, making up stories about me. Ludicrous things, like that I throw tea on my assistants.

People say I'm the white Aretha Franklin. I wish I was her.

People grow. It's okay to grow. Some people find that difficult to grasp.
