You mean, like a book?

It's nice to marry your best friend. It suits me.

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.

I really didn't try to make an effort to make urban music, but I am a product of my inspirations.

The way I grew up, I was always taught that it's uncouth to talk about money, and that's not what should inspire you.

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.

I feel very fortunate to be compared to somebody so incredible. Michael Jackson's an icon.
