I was used to playing misled youth, rough-and-tumble guys. It was nice to get back to a big-hearted, warm and gentle soul, a guy who is destined for something a lot larger than he ever expected

I'd love to hold a koala. They sleep 22 hours a day, eat eucalyptus leaves and just hang out. I want to spend some time with that guy

Rarely do I ever think of my music as inspired but I guess it must be. Perhaps I would use the word "crockpotted" or "pressure-cooked".

I'm happy to be on a show that's bridging that gap of 'Okay, I'm not a teenager anymore, I'm a man.'

It's okay to not know completely what you want or what you should be doing and to stumble a little bit.

I find myself trying to translate a lot of the things whirring passed my subjective lens into language I can make sense of, then that tribal tongue becomes rap-language and for whatever reason some people on the internet really like that. To y'all I'm eternally indebted.

The goal with my music is to maintain a certain honesty and quality. That sounds pretty pretentious as if I'm trying to imply no one else is doing this - I don't believe that. I merely mean to say that what everyone else is doing easily, that is to say, creating without impediment - is sort of difficult for me.
