I've never really played golf. With the sax, I learned technique well enough so that it feels like part of my body, and I just express myself. That's where I want to get in golf.

It's important to let each artist do what makes him or her feel comfortable. Success should be a by-product of that.

That's my ideal day, time with my boys.

I listen to all the top 20 songs, and top 20 albums, even the rap albums. But I don't like negative messages. If somebody is putting a lot of ego out there, I don't like it. When I make my records I want it to be sincere.

I've learned that you simply can't control those bad vibes.

Maybe I'm a dreamer, but I think the ordinary guy has just as much right to say 'This is a good song' as somebody who is in the music business.

Finally, I was no longer a student and was making music for myself.
