I want to get my music out there. I enjoy playing shows; I just don't enjoy airports. I want to be more creative, but it's hard to get into that zone on tour.

The key to a good life is finding things that you want to master.

I don't love all hip-hop, but I do relate to stuff like early Nas, 2Pac, Biggie, and MF Doom because they're also trying to escape a scenario.

I wanted to create something really aggressive and psychedelic

I relate to hustlers who want to get out of where they are and create something different for themselves.

I can cry myself to sleep because I'm not as great as Leonard Cohen, but who cares? Maybe you can't be as great as some people, but it's a tragedy when you don't follow your dreams.

I want people to have a good time. Its boring only to hear singer/songwriters spilling their guts.
