I love what Alabama Shakes is doing - it's kind of like what grunge did to rock 'n' roll, they're doing to R&B.
I love horror movies in space. I love it when the genre switches over and what was sci-fi becomes horror.
I love dogs. I think dogs are way smarter. Maybe I can be the dog spokesman for the rock world. There are a lot of cat people making rock music.
I'm an example of someone who never made it to university. I did have this dream to be a musician. I felt that this dream had an expiration date.
I don't know how people do it these days - paparazzi and that kind of thing. That's something I can't even imagine.
Though some may think there should be a separation between art/music and politics, it should be reinforced that art can be a form of nonviolent protest.
I set our house on fire when I was a little child playing with lighters. Boy, did I burn the place down!
My sister and I were born in San Francisco. When our parents died, we came down here to live with relatives.
My first show was when I was a high school freshman, but it was at the junior class dance. My older friend and bandmate booked it.
People don't always realize that a record is forever. It'll always be there under your name. You've got to be certain that it's right.
Plans never go well for me. I just live every day like I ain't gonna live the next one.
The first song I did was over a Chief Keef beat - 'Understand Me.' I did that in, like, 2011 or 2012, I think.
If I win, I'll take my wife and buy her a whole new wardrobe. If she's happy then I'll be happy.
If people say something rude or off-color, you have to take it with a grain of salt, because they don't know you.
Some goals you just never really think about trying to achieve because they just seem so out of reach.
My son's taking drum lessons, and my daughter's taking piano lessons. One day they're going to start a band.
I don't want to be that parent that puts my kids into what I think they should be in, you know what I mean?
I think right about now we have to beware of marketed Malcolms and Martins. Real people do real things.
What made me want to become a recording artist; I was the first artist that was repeatedly asked by a label to record with them. That label was Def Jam Records.
I came second in a 1,500-metre running race at school. I knew I couldn't have come first, so second was my version of first.
I have a couple of girlfriends who've told me some horror stories but I've never had a really terrible kiss before.
