Bob Dylan and John Lennon and Bruce Springsteen, these are soul guys. Bruce Springsteen might not sing like Otis Redding, but he sings with white soul. He's singing and he's writing songs from the bottom of his gut.
I'd like to collaborate with Jay-Z and Mary J. Blige.
My songs don't play on pop radio; they play on black radio.
Being critical is not something I like to do. I like to appreciate and inspire.
Life is full of constant ups and downs, and all I ask for is redemption in the end.
I just want to say that dreams do come true. Don't ever give up on your dreams. Sometimes it just takes a little bit longer for some of us.
