There's A Certain Confidence That Comes With Being Sure About The Way The World Works.

I Only Want To Be Associated With Music That Is High Quality. That's My Main Criteria.

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

It's An Artist's Duty To Reflect The Times In Which We Live.

Music Business Is Not For Everyone. But If You Have It In You, You Have That Passion, If You Have That Energy In You That You Really Want To Make Something Creative And Make Something That's Going To Impact The World, Then Go For It, Do It And Don't Let Anybody Tell You No.

Some Of Them [family Names] Have Sentimental Value For Some Reason Or Another, Some Of Them Just Sound Beautiful. Some Of Them Are Because Of People That Are Meaningful To Us In Our Lives.

I Would Tell Myself, "love Yourself And Don't Be Afraid To Take Risks." I Was Often Afraid To Take Risks, Socially, Because I Was Young And A Little More Shy And Still Figuring Out Who I Wanted To Be. Sometimes I Look Back And Think, "i Should Have Just Been Bolder And More Confident."

I Wrote The Song "show Me" As A Prayer To God Asking Simple, Honest Questions About Life And Death And Why There Is So Much Suffering In The World. As I Grew With The Song I Realized I Shouldn't Limit These Questions Solely To God; I Should Ask Those Questions Of Others And Of Myself.

Now That I'm Coming Out With My Own Record People Can See I'm A Solo Artist.
