You should never look at somebody and say, 'I wish I had their life,' because you never really know what struggles they're going through.

If there's a certain song that I want to reach a certain person or certain type of person, that's when I play it for people.

If you focus more on the inside, you'll feel just as great about the outside. I feel attractive when I'm doing good and helping people.

I feel like you have to tell people who you are, but you don't have to be disrespectful about it. But you also don't have to be a shrinking violet.

Whenever I get to talk to young girls like me I always say, 'The only difference between you and I is that I know that I'm special and you just don't know that you are yet.'

Often, kids don't appreciate the choices available, as if it's either the street or nothing.

We need to stop separating ourselves by how dark or how light we are.
