At one point, the old school club retires and you're next up to bat, but if you stop before your time, you will see someone else live your dream.

I didn't really do many business ventures throughout my career because I would have an idea and then before I'd have a chance to make something of it, I'd see someone else do it. I just liked to watch my fellow artists become entrepreneurs and be people who can inspire the next generation. I did that more with my songs.

Anybody I'm dating, I don't want them to talk about my music. I don't talk about my music to them.

You're supposed to be who you are. You're supposed to make music that is true to you.

No temporary chaos is worth your sanity. Just knowing that whatever happens, it happens to the best of them too.

No idea is original, there's nothing new under the sun, it's never what you do, but how it's done

In the past I had to deal with issues that hit me as a younger man. As a man who wasn't married who didn't really have the experience that I have now. Today I'm a different guy.
