If I knew what I was doing, I'd be doing it right now. I would be the best damn poet, silver words out of my mouth. My words might not be magic, but they cut straight to the truth. So if you need a lover and a friend, baby, I'm in.

I love the beginnings of artists when all they've got is raw talent and nothing else.

Everyday I see a little more of my father in me.

Let water wash our bodies clean, and love wash our souls.

It's something I've always loved doing. I'm not one of the artists who comes in and just does my bit. I'm there every second of every day. That's my hands-on situation.

Youre always in a different headspace when you make each record, so hopefully theyre all different. You just pick up things that you wish you hadnt done on the first one.

Raw is a good place for an artist. It's where the truth comes out.
