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

You can say things a million times, but if you can't sing it, then it really isn't much of a song.

If you asked me what pop is right now. I'd say hip hop.

You cannot make a difference unless you're different.

I think, for me specifically when it comes to music, I don't think that I need any persuading to think about it. It's always kind of in the back of your mind and - but I think it's part of who I am and always will be, I mean, in a very cellular way. When you grow up doing, you know, one thing, I think you get to this place where you want to try new things. And I do think that we live in the type of world where people get comfortable with you in one way, and so seeing you in a different way, it takes some time.

A gentleman can never have too many bow ties.

I can give you my personal opinion: love the music, hate the business. It's a screwball business, and there are a lot of players who will straight-up lie to you.
