I think it does surprise me a bit when people have a very fixed idea of what I'm like, based upon the work that I do, which is something that is very separate.

I feel like it's very important that I'm doing what I'm doing, and I want to keep honoring that and try and do it as honestly as I can.

I also like a lot of silence, and when you're touring, it's constantly noise, all the time, you're surrounded with 15 or 20 people the entire time. I find that tough.

It [ "Not For Long"] was the biggest song that I've had, and I actually heard it on the radio multiple times.

Before I record for real, I know pretty much exactly how I want them to feel.

Like I have to pretend like I'm a male rapper, that I got stacks and we're in the club, and what do I want to say. And then, when writing Rare I could just be PJ.

There is a thread connecting you no matter how far away you are from someone and you know I have two or three relationships in my life that are like that.
