It doesn't matter who you are, or where you come from, or how much money you've got in your pocket. You have your own destiny and your own life ahead of you.

An artist is the only thing I want to be. I only want my freedom and my creativity. It's all that I live for. I reject the idea that I have to take all the costumes and makeup off to be f - king authentic.

You have to fail and then get better. Then you have to fail again, and then get even better.

There is no oil so thick as to destroy the imagination.

I never care personally what people say about me. The music, and the message - this will always be more important to me than people thinking I'm the best.

If you are not honorable enough to fight without prejudice, go home.

I have to be really honest: People who say they can't escape the paparazzi are full of sh*t. Let me just be the artist to throw everybody under the bus. I don't spend lots of money on houses or lots of cars, but I do spend money on security and they never find me.
