You either learn from your experiences or go back and do the same thing, and I learned from my experiences.

The music business is really, really small. The real music is becoming almost extinct, if you don't stay true to who you are.

You can hate me. You can go out there and say anything you want about me, But you will love me later because I told you the truth.

I had to learn how to trust my gut. Trust what I know to be right... not right, but not waver on who I am. Know who I am, know what I want, and know it. Not waver on it and be secure in that. And I still struggle with it. But I really... I can't be moved. You can't move me, and that all comes with loving myself, and I'm like my best buddy.

I never do any album to beat it. I do it to extend it.

If you're looking for inner peace from the outside world, you're not going to get that. The inner peace starts with looking at you from the inside.

'My Life' is not an autobiography. It's just music.
