I just live one day at a time.

I think rap definitely has its place in the art world. I think it is an art form. But, just like any art form, you can misuse it.

I went to India, lived, and studied.

I'm still James Johnson. Rick James is a stage name. James Johnson keeps Rick James on the ground... Kind of sort of.

I had always been a free spirit, and always gotten what I wanted.

KISS hammered home the importance of high drama...I decided to design my show with the same goal; I wanted my fans to remember my show for the rest of their lives.

I was going to get drafted, but I didn't really want to go into the Army.
