I'm all about change, and I know things are going to move forward in life, and that's just how it goes.

I truly believe that people like myself, who are in a position of entertainers in the limelight, should keep their mouth shut on politics.

I know a lot of people who are struggling musicians; it's a hard life, and I've risked being that. The rewards are tremendous now that I've made it, I thank God every day. But I put it all on the line for it.

A lot of people told me that I'm committing musical suicide with my sound.

I've always made music from the heart, and that's what I do.

I'm not worried about headlines affecting my family, especially my son. He knows who I am. Whatever these things he is reading, he has a different perspective than the rest of the world just as a lot of my friends do.

Being married sucked. Maybe for some people it is not meant to be.
