This is my chance to get out there and appease the fans of my music as well as show people that I do do standup comedy because a lot of people don't know that's where I started.

I'm a musician. I play instruments. I dabble in the hip-hop field. That doesn't take vocal ability necessarily.

I was 16 years old, driving to LA, and sleeping in my car, just trying to make it happen.

We are already expected to be the goodie two shoes. I went through that during my junior high schools where I wasn't allowed to watch television. I wasn't allowed to listen to the radio.

A lot of people don't know the first time I was ever on national television I was a 'Soul Train' dancer.

I am always the first to say that fame and entertainment is one of the best and easiest occupations to ever have, but one must know how to navigate through the matrix or you may find yourself in a very dark hole.

People think that as a celebrity, you have to have this sort of mystique about you, but I'm probably the realest person you'll ever meet.
