I grew up in Baltimore which is a one of the biggest drug cities. I've seen a lot of drugs... so it was always around me, but I never really indulged in those type of activities. I never used drugs in my life and I was blessed enough with the wisdom and the strength to move forward.

I definitely see myself making classic R&B records with somewhat of a trendy vibe to it. I definitely wouldn't say trap.

A universal sound is about having everybody be able to relate to it whether you're in New York, LA, London or Australia. You have to be able to universally be brought back to a place where they can relate to you as an artist.

Always keep your portfolio and your risk at your own individual comfortable sleeping point.

What doesn't kill you makes you smaller

Brave men die a single death; cowards marry fish-head mermaids!

If someone throws a banana at me in the street, I will go to prison because I will kill him.
