Nobody works harder than Lady Gaga. Nobody. She is unbelievable. I don't know how she sleeps, or when or if.

I would rather put out two year-defining songs a year than flood the market with eight or nine songs.

I'm actually introverted and shy.

I'm in an odd position because I write across so many genres for so many people and they all influence me, and if I'm going to write as honest an album as possible, it's going to be layered.

I started selling corn dogs, ended up in the music industry. That's how it all started.

Everything that kills me , makes me feel alive

I have to shut down from other artists, because otherwise I end up giving them my stories.
