I'm 100% real, even when what's real is ugly. I don't take any pride in covering up, hiding and lying.

For the first few years of my life my mom used to cut my hair so there were a lot of bowl-cut hair styles

I watch cartoons the way most adults watch reality-TV shows.

As of right this second my main focus is my new album, it'll be out probably towards the summertime, predominately R&B this time. I had a little stint with the dance music and all of that, which I had a good time with- and I love the audience, I love them for accepting me doing it -but I had to go home on this one. Had to take it back to my roots, and not to say that there won't be one, maybe two songs on there that the dance crowd can get into, but the majority, the girth of the album, will be R&B.

There wasn't a lot of R&B cats doing songs at 120 beats per minute before 'Closer,' which I take full credit and responsibility for. That's all good, but it was an experiment. You experiment with something, if it goes good, cool, but you never forget where you come from and R&B is where I come from.

My style is mainly about comfort. It has to be comfortable, it has to lay right on me, know what I mean?

An idea that will translate really well musically should work visually. I try to write music that you can feel if you were to close your eyes you can see what I am talking about.
