I have musician friends who play too much golf, and they're not as good at music anymore.

When you love what you do, it pays off, and that's the best reward you could have.

The way to stay inspired and motivated is by doing what you like, doing what you love.

The reward is when you make the music, not when you get the medal.

Kids are probably frustrated and egos are too much involved and kids don't know how to get together and be kids and start a group and it's kind of sad because I feel like if you come out with three or four people in the beginning, you can be protected and everybody can shield each other. Before you get out there by yourself and get all these people coming at you. I just think it's not really there.

I don't really produce so-called commercial pop music so I haven't changed so much. I've been on the one path always.

I've always loved people that's been around for a long time, like old shoes.
