I didn't want to be famous or any of that.
I'm not like any other artist, point blank.
I'm somewhat of a perfectionist.
I was poor my whole life.
I respect anybody that is very in tune with their feelings.
I was such a huge Ne-Yo fan.
The reason I make music is to make people feel something, anything.
I wanna live long. As long as I can.
I love to work with producers who are very good with their chord progressions.
People beat around the bush so much, and I try to be really blunt in my music.
There was a time where I was really confused about who I was and what I was doing, and I was just kind of depressed.
I've done arenas, and sometimes it feels like you're the only one in the room.
I like to be the captain of my ship and be involved with everything from stage production, merch, art, and rollouts.
Fame is weird.
Music's a hobby to me.
I was the only real punk rock kid in my school, with, like, the plaid pants and the Rancid t-shirt.
I don't do all the things I say I do in my songs, but nobody does.
I'm an honest person. I've nothing to hide.
I have several guns. I have several dirt bikes and ATVs, good old country-boy things.
I learned from the best storytellers in the world Bill Withers, Stevie Wonder, Prince, Ne-Yo, Michael Jordan, Vin Diesel, RuPaul.
The world is changing. I'm trying to adjust to it, just like everyone else.
I wanna get backup singers, but I don't think I will ever get backup dancers.
It's important to reinvent yourself often, because if you don't, someone else will and squash you like a bug.
I was diagnosed with necrotizing chronic pancreatitis, and it definitely put a pause on live performances for a while.
I wanted a guitar when I was 4 or 5, and I learned how to play guitar by the time I was 6. Just self-taught.
I ordered a decaf coffee the other night, and I was like, 'Holy crap, I'm an adult.'
