You lose the arrogance you need to be successful, but you need that arrogance because the second someone sees that side of you and chip at it, it's over.

When you take high risks, the rewards are higher. So sometimes I'll gamble just to see what happens. If it doesn't work, I know I can't do that.

Sad songs seem to work for me, but I don't want to be redundant; I want to add a little flavor.

I learned that I had to believe in myself and not just to be comfortable with the opinions of others. I'm just more in control; I finalize everything.

You can never go back to the first two albums in a career.

You lose the arrogance you need to be successful, but you need that arrogance because the second someone sees that side of you and chip at it, it's over.

My ideal kinda guy, if I was really gonna go there even though he's married, is Mark Wahlberg. To me he's a little black and white, the kinda guy who would understand if I pull my weave out.
