If you look at the guys in the '70s, like Led Zeppelin, they had bigger planes than we do, they had more money. But they weren't singing about it.

It was amazing to me that, all of a sudden, I was hearing my music on the radio and coming out of cars.

I don't play the tuba.

There's certain things in life that I love. One is architecture. And music, culture, food, people. New Orleans has all of that.

Don't take it so seriously.

The loyalty rate isn't that high. I could have a big hit, then put out the next single, and they say, Oh yeah, who are you? Prove it again.

There's definitely an old school element to my music, but I also think it's modern.
