The most important thing my father taught me is that every man has to stand up for his rights.

Each of us has some change within us, we cannot change the political or the social system of the world unless we change inside of us as individuals and that’s the direction I am in now which I call spiritual.

It's very important that we instill some respect for the parents. In America especially, the kids are unruly, screaming at mommy and daddy, running the show.

I left Jamaica for a while, because as an artist I need to experience different things, see the world, have different energies. Living in one place is not good for me.

I am expressing myself truthfully. That is an important thing.

My father's songs don't intimidate me; my father's songs are my songs. My songs are his songs. There's no intimidation.

I'm inspired to do music. I really can't stop unless I stop being inspired.
