Canada can be tough for urban music.

I rarely buy a shoe that is completely specific to a time and outfit. I generally tend to spend money on good shoes that can go with everything.

Canada had the good health-care system and educational system. It was a privilege for me to grow up there.

Bob Marley is one of the most recognized artists. He didn't care to be defined. People wondered, 'Is it reggae? Is it rock?' But at the end of the day they were still playing his music and that's what matters.

I've admired Alicia Keys since before I got into the music industry, just everything she represents as a female artist.

I love Canada, always.

I'm a first-generation Canadian.
