I'm grateful to be alive, because I really did not think I was going to be alive, onstage performing songs.

I know for one thing that alcohol will have no more part in my life.

I'm lookin' at these Disney characters, these young girls coming out looking like, little whores.

I can't eat processed food.

My goal for these next few years, for the next forever, is to try and keep positive things around me. If somebody is coming at me with negative stuff, just back away from me.

I miss my hair, but I feel like going out there with some fake braids wouldn't be right. I want to be the most genuine performer I can be.

This album [Give the People What They Want] has almost been in the making for almost three years now. When we first began on it, my mother was sick. When she passed away, I got on stage and played that night. The music helped take me away.
