The people around me haven't changed. The people who have been in my life since the beginning are still in my life now. I think that has a lot to do with my staying grounded and humble despite the success I've achieved.

People don't want drama 365 days a year. I'm a sense of relief; it's my job to take your mind off what's bad for that brief second you're in the room with me, regardless of shape, race, colour or anything. It brings people together, and it makes me feel good about what I'm doing.

'Soul Plane' put me in a position to succeed. I'm glad I had the opportunity to be the lead man.

What? Okay, back up. How in the hell do you 'turn up missing'?

My son is becoming me - just a silly, silly prankster guy.

I'm not the most attractive fella. I'm not a Billy Dee Williams. Personality is everything.

When people get married young, you don't really understand the true definition of marriage.
