The Biggest Weapon Is To Stay Peaceful

We Have A Serious Problem With Incarceration In This Country. It's Destroying Families, It's Destroying Communities And We're The Most Incarcerated Country In The World, And When You Look Deeper And Look At The Reasons We Got To This Place, We As A Society Made Some Choices Politically And Legislatively, Culturally To Deal With Poverty, Deal With Mental Illness In A Certain Way And That Way Usually Involves Using Incarceration.

​w​e're So Used To Having Everything We Want At Our Fingertips So I Think That When Things Get Tough It's ​difficult ​for People To Persist Through That.

I Think The Most Important Thing Is That I'm Making Music That The People Enjoy. So The Fans, The People That Are Out There Listening To Music And Consuming Music, I Want Them To Enjoy It And Love It. And So That's More Important To Me Than Grammys.

Music Was My Life...it Was Everything To Me, Even Though I Was In School Majoring In English. I Was Still Very Focused On Music And Always Finding Ways To Perform, So That Was What Set Me Up To Want To Become A Recording Artist.

To Me, As A Musician, There Aren't Any Boundaries Genre-wise As Far As What Can You Listen To To Inspire You.
