Just when I think it couldn't get any bigger, 'Tuskegee' reaches a new level of success.

I just like people. I'll hold a conversation at a gas station. It's not about the fame and the fortune, I just like people.

When will we ever learn, there's nowhere else we can turn.

By growing up in Alabama, I had a melting pot of the whole pie: R&B, gospel, country.

I'm a songwriter, and people will tell you the greatest stories about their lives, whether you want to hear it or not.

It's quite interesting that in my growing up I had several influences. We had gospel music on campus. R&B music was, of course, the community, and radio was country music. So I can kind of see where all the influences came from.

I'm easy like Sunday Morning.
