My mother gave lots of good advice and had a lot to say. As you get older, you realize everything she said was true.

I haven't thought about making a music film, but if I did, that would be a very interesting idea.

Later on in life I was like, "Wow!" because that's exactly how it was. They don't care that you're mixed. They see you as one color.

I've had to work very hard, and I don't really have a category or fit into any niche, so each time I come out with a new record, it's like, I'm a new guy.

I just live my life and try to be present. When I'm present in the moment and something comes, I can capture it, because it doesn't come from me, it's out there.

We should take time out to really love; we should take time out to find out who we are.

A dramatic thing, the first time you stand up to your dad.
