I'm very much a relationship guy. I like to bounce ideas off the person that I love. I like having a real connection.

I listened to a lot of Michael Jackson growing up. A lot of Boyz II Men. I loved Mariah Carey. Just big vocalists. I was always that kid who just wore whatever and did whatever.

I wear black diamonds instead of regular ones because I’m not flashy, just flossssy.

My fans are sexy. Yes they are. They can't help themselves. It is just how they do.

I feel like it's my responsibility to be the greatest I can be. If I go out there and start making terrible music, I don't expect people to like me. If I'm making great music and there's no reason for people to not like me, that's when it's going to make me upset. People just need to take a chance and listen.

I learned if you have $100 or $100 million - if you spend more than you have, you’re going to go broke.

I grew up in a really small town with not a lot of money, and I liked singing, but it was just something that was a hobby.
