I wanted to make something that sounded very pure, organic, and personal. I wanted to make music that was timeless.

I'm very much about the environment, I'm very much about health, about being able to, at the very least, eat organic, whole foods that are healthy for us. And then, of course, everyone being able to eat and at least have a humane way to live. There's enough for everybody, but unfortunately, there's a lot of greed and a lot of ego.

The story that I wanna tell is pretty much about the way I grew up. Being bi-racial, growing up in a big city and being an artist.

God gave me the gift to be able to play instruments and I have to play.

Every night is different, you never know what it's going to be like. I remember every night. I don't like to compare them.

I'm experiencing the mood to go out and share the music. I don't look at these concerts as a platform for people to watch me, look at me. No, a tour is about an interaction. A thing, myself, a band, and the people who support what I do and enjoy what I do.

You can't even sing or play an instrument, so you just scream instead. You're living for an image, so you got five hundred women in your bed.
