I dated the same girl all through high school.

Being a producer is a very different experience than writing my own songs.

I don't stream or buy CDs pretty much everything I buy, I do it on iTunes.

I kinda like the duality of California and the dark side, the underbelly of California, and I think that's what this album ['California']feels like - there's endless hope and optimism but there's also a darker side.

If your like me, you like to wait till your parents are having sex and walk in on them and act like its an accident, and then ask if you can join in.

We just kind of did our own thing and got made fun of by the popular kids. It was kind of like a badge of honor to be an outcast.

Parents don't understand kids and kids don't understand parents. My parents were divorced when I was really young and I went to live with my dad.
