I was working with D'Mile - he's amazing! And I don't know, it was like that guitar riff was so crazy to me, and so I think I was frustrated about something that happened earlier and I feel like I'm just a good guy, I don't cut people off, I don't really call people out when they do stuff that they should be called out on, and I'm just always the one being the bigger person. So, that day "Gangster" just came out. That's just how I feel in that day to day life.

I see men come and go, but there'll be one who'll collect my soul.

I long ago learned that you can't expect people to interpret the songs in the way they had meant for you, as the writer.

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

I don't loathe interviews, I'm just one of those people who makes music because I find it difficult to talk.

Well, I don't really concern myself too much with what other people make of my work.

Obviously, the emotions I want to convey through music are streamed through the way I interpret life.
