My favorite thing in the world was to make people sing - until I made people laugh. Then that became my favorite thing in the world.

The many sounds of Memphis shaped my early musical career and continue to be an inspiration to this day.

The values my mother taught me were like, if you're going to do something, don't half-ass it. I remember her literally saying that to me. Like the first time I ever heard the term half-ass was coming from my mother's lips. I was probably 8 or 9. If you're going to do something, go ahead and throw 115 percent at it, and if you get 100 percent back, well, there you go - you're perfect.

It's not a bad Thing to fall in Love.

I have OCD mixed with ADD, you try living with that. Its complicated.

The fans have been great to me. I don't think it's asking too much to have me sign something for them.

I think my style is kind of a cross between a skater hippie and an R&B star. If there were something I was going to endorse, it would probably be something like sneakers. Something that would be me.
