My life is not separate from my music, you know? It's not like a day job that I leave and go home. It's who I am as a person and how I am trying to grow, come closer to God, be a better person.

The religious lifestyle keeps you focused. It's helpful when trying to manoeuvre through the music scene.

I can't choose the most meaningful song that I've written. That would be like choosing one child over another. But first borns are always special.

Reggae music isn't Jewish, but a lot of the ideas are.

I don't think you could pull one Bob Marley song that didn't have quotes from the Torah or the Old Testament.

At a certain point, I felt the need to submit to a higher level of religiosity to move away from my intuition and to accept an ultimate truth. I felt that in order to become a good person, I needed rules - lots of them - or else I would somehow fall apart. I am reclaiming myself. Trusting my goodness and my divine mission.

There are a lot of people who get me. There are a lot of people who don't. I wouldn't say there is one thing that everyone is missing. But there are a good amount[b] of people who don't necessarily understand the recent changes I have made.
