You can't really put a time limit on how long someone will grieve.

I come over here and a lot of people are like, "What's with the new hair?" I'm like, "Y'all must not have been looking - every album, I change."

When I say R&B is dead, I'm pretty much saying the creativity is gone.

In America, there are some artists who are more of an image than music; if your star status goes down there, you're finished.

With the artists that I named - Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Madonna, every time they come out with a new album, something's slightly different. In the case of Madonna, she'll come with one joint that'll be left, and then come totally right, but it's always hot. She's just got style. So, at the end, I want my name to be up there with those artists; for people to say, he's one of those iconic figures you can't put in a box.

I can make beleive I have everything, but I can't pretend that I don't see that without you in my life is complete.
