My Family Is Very Musical, I Was

I Don't Like Going To Football Games. I Like Watching Them On Television. When You Go To A Game, It's Hard To Focus. There's So Much Going On, And It's Cold. I'd Rather Sit And Watch It And Get Replays And Commentary.

I Like Songs That Have Like A Little Bit Of Quirkiness To Them. What I Like To Do With Songs, Is Kind Of Throw A Little Curveball In The Lyrics Or In The Arrangement, To Kind Of Give It A Little Twist To It.

For Me There's Insecurity When You're Releasing An Album Because You Spend All Of This Time Working On That One Thing And Then Once It's Done, It's Done. After You Put It Out There To The Public You Never Know Which Songs Are Going To Work Or Even If The Album Is Going To Work As A Whole So There Is A Little Bit Of Nervousness Around Predicting What The Numbers Will Be And If It's Going To Be Well-received.

Sometimes I Just Think People Are Haters. And If They're Haters, You Can Listen To What They Have To Say But You Have To Take It With A Grain Of Salt.

But In My Mind I've Always Been A Solo Artist- I've Just Been Working With A Lot Of Great People Like Kanye And Alicia Keys And Jay-z.
