Everything that kills me , makes me feel alive

Honest always sells. Always has, always will.

When I moved to L.A., I was penniless, absolutely beyond broke and in debt up to my eyeballs.

Just because a suit fits, doesn't mean it looks good. You need a tailor. You want to get bespoke.

The only thing contrived is the production - you can over-produce to the point you kill a good idea, you can under-produce so that the song's amazing but you'll have folks at a radio station saying they won't play it, so there's this balance, and it has to be true.

I'm just a regular guy, but if you cross me it will get physical.

There is maybe a cynicism because of my past as a writer.
