My style hero was Batman. Now it's Tony Stark.

I'm always consciously trying to make what I feel is missing.

As a kid, I always had a super vivid imagination, like "Man, I like those shoes, but they should've made them in purple" or like, "Man, I wonder how people make songs."

Iconic artists are never straight ahead. Michael Jackson loved Elvis and Burt Bacharach, and uniquely blended both of them into what he did.

The last thing you want to do as a creator is take something of someone else's when you love him.

I think all music is a gift from God.

I'm just very thankful. And I say that a lot because that's the most important message.
