If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If its marketed right, you'll buy it. But... If its real... you'll feel it.

Well, I was into music since I was a kid, ya know, back in Detroit. I say Detroit, but it was really a little suburb outside the city called Romeo.

I'm actually a pretty decent human being, and when I'm home I'm straight as an arrow.

I see friends who are in different genres of music, and they say they're so burnt playing the same stuff every night. That's why you see a country act wanting to go out and play an old classic rock song. But what cracks me up is that they all want to be Jimmy Buffett. I can't figure that out.

I'm no saint but I do believe in what is right.

I've always made music from the heart, and that's what I do. And at the end of the day, whether it works or not, I can say I tried my best.

I still love old-school hip-hop, but there hasn't been a lot that I've taken from the new stuff.
