If you eat good, you feel good. I would encourage every body else to do the same.

And I just pray that god gives me longevity in the music industry.

I don't want to be a one-hit wonder.

I'm in the process of brainstorming with my marketing team and all that stuff, trying to come up with a concept for a late-night restaurant for people in Birmingham.

In life we all go through different situations that cause you to reflect. I had the opportunity to be married to a wonderful person. And for some reason two good people couldn't make a good thing work. But in life, the one thing that I love about being an artist is that you can sometimes use the pain that you go through to make beautiful things.

You can be confident and secure and know that you do a good job at what you do. But you don't know to be arrogant about it.

I am comfortable with anything I sing: jazz, gospel, classical. It doesn't matter. I can do it all.
