I think everybody gets lonely sometimes. I don't know if people can ever understand how you can be in a room full of people and be lonely sometimes.

I think 'selfies' are fun and expressive, as long as you don't get carried away with it.

I think clothes are very much a representation of your attitude and the way you feel. I really love to be dressed down, though.

I think people just feel me. Whenever they listen to the music, it's just coming out. I think you can hear what I put into it. A lot of it is God. You can use stuff to where you want it. Like I pray to God, and I asked for direction early on, and he gave me so much. It's like rappers and soul singers is taking to me. That's both sides of me.

A lot of people are wanting him [Barack Obama] to be the president just because he's black. But I think he does have some good views.

I've never really been settled. I don't think I've ever known what it was like to be a person that was used to sitting still. I think it's given me the ability to detach from any situation.

I don't think music can be held. I don't think artists can be put into boxes or places. It's all about creating and making the best music you can.
