You can't take yourself too seriously. But always have conviction.
I can write hundreds of songs on simple power chords.
I feel like R&B as a genre has become a caricature of itself.
I mean, there's plenty of artists who are making R&B music, but because of their ethnicity, it's considered something else.
I'm a big advocate of music being an honest representation of who you are as a person and your perspective.
I associate creativity with independent music.
