A lot of artists don't like the sound of their voice. They're put off by it.

I'm known for being a good listener. Most people need a lot of love and encouragement and I'm more than willing to give a person all the encouragement and time they need.

What Whitney Houston has accomplished will never be accomplished. She's the most famous person on the planet as far as vocaling and her songs. So I'm very happy that I can sit here and say I had a chance to know her. And I'm still dazed that she's gone. But she lives because her music is so powerful.

Rock was always part of my heart and soul. But the times just changed and everybody wanted to dance.

I think it's artist's role to give and to receive and the people to give it, hear it, vibe on it, and give it back around again.

I feel like before I came to the planet I asked God for the gift of music. I didn't want to come here without the gift of music and God granted it to me.

I just want to play for the people, give my new sound to them, and encourage them and be encouraged by people.
