I Don't Feel Like I Look Like

Akon Is A Very Talented Songwriter To Work With. His Melodies, They're Just Insane. It's Funny, I Think About Him A Lot When I'm Doing My Melodies Because He's So Simple, And He's Just Been Great. He Keeps Me On My Feet, Very Grounded, But He Also Puts Me On A Silver Platter, Which Is Always Very Nice. So It's Been An Incredible Influence. It's Like Every Time You Work With Somebody That's Better That You Are, You Become Greater.

Being Different Is A Talent. You Illuminate What Makes You Special In The Sea Of Sameness Around You.

I Decided To Pursue Music, So I Dropped Out Of School And I Told My Parents I Didn't Want Any Money From Them. I Got Three Jobs And I Just Hit The Ground Running.

I've Gone Bankrupt About Four Times Now. Every Dollar I Earn Goes On The Show.

If There Was Some Sort Of Mathematical Equation For Beauty, I Don’t Know If I Would Be The Algorithm. I’m Not A Supermodel. That’s Not What I Do. What I Do Is Music. I Want My Fans To Feel The Way I Do, To Know What They Have To Offer Is Just As Important, More Important, Than What’s Happening On The Outside.
