When I write, I don't have any expectation of what kind of song it will become or who it might reach.

I write to the beat and let life play the guitar strings

I put myself in the place of the listener when editing my writing. The last thing that I want to do is be preached at and told who to be or what to think when listening to an artist. However, I do want to be inspired. There's a fine line.

Sampling is kind of prehistoric, given the technology and the textures you can create.

We sell our dreams and our potential to escape through that buzz.

And weed's not a drug - that's denial

The skyline is etched in my veins. You can never put that out, no matter how hard it rains.
