As an artist, I never want to be a moment. I want to be a legacy, and I want my music to touch people for years to come.

I'm a regular guy, and I don't want anyone to look at me as being superior or having a God complex or anything like that, you know? I don't want to walk around like I know everything, because I have so much more room to improve.

I've been singing since I could talk correctly.

In my home, we listened to music all the time. I was raised through music, and I've been interested in it since I was three.

I would never have been able to find my voice if I didn't have music education.

A lot of people think teenagers haven't gone through anything in their lives - they're not even 20 years old yet. But a twenty-something can go through the same type of experience or heartbreak that a 50-year-old can go through, so why does age matter?

With 'Location' and all the other songs around it, my music turned into therapy for others. And that's something I really love and am blown away by.

If you don't text your relationship partner - even if you just saw them in person - it's like you're doing something wrong.

My peers inspire me, especially being a newer artist.

Even though I was super personal with 'American Teen,' I want to tap in and not just tell my own stories but tell the stories of other people - so that I can help as many people as possible.
