I don't advise kids to do what I do. I'm just doing me. I just smoke a little weed and do a little drink.

I'm not old school, like, "Aw, man, I gotta do my music like I did in '98." I just go with the flow. I don't try to change anything.

I love performing, signing autographs, taking 'selfies' with the fans. This is just what I feel like I was born to do.

It's up to the parents to watch their kids and make sure their kids aren't doing any crazy drugs. I always blame the parents. When their kids are doing something crazy, I blame the parents.

You gotta live life. You gotta enjoy life. I mean, I don't live on the edge.

I just keep my ear to the street. I haven't read any music books recently, because I figure I read everything I need to know back when I was 12, 13 years old. I know pretty much everything about record publishing, radio stations. The only thing that's changed is you gotta keep up with social media. It's free promotion.

I keep my ear to the streets - that's how I know music. I live, breathe, eat, and sleep music. That's it. Nothing else.
