I wouldn't even hold my kids sometimes because I didn't want them to spit up on me when I was dressed for an awards show.

As musicians and artists, it's important we have an environment - and I guess when I say environment, I really mean the industry, that really nurtures these gifts. Oftentimes, the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society.

My parents had a love for music. There were so many records, so much music constantly being played. My mother played piano, my father sang, and we were always surrounded in music.

God teaches me about reality, so when he tells me to do something, I do, because I'm led to.

Wisdom is better than silver and gold

I hope that by people seeing the result of freedom that they'll want some, too.
