I'm a musician, so for the most part I've always thought that the musicians were equally as inspiring to listen to - maybe more so, in some cases - in addition to the artists.

Through music you learn not to care about the color of someone's skin.

I am responsible for me. I can kind of take care of what I need to do and should do what I like to do.

Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.

When I look back, I don't remember the best of the best. I don't remember arena shows with 20,000 people. I remember funky little bar gigs where nobody shows up. The weirdest of the weird are what you retain.

There ain't no future in the past.

Music is like having a conversation. All musicians inspire each other, and they're all geared to play something that matters.
