I'm an entertainer. I get up on stage and I try to make people enjoy my music, and that political arena - I'm going to stay out of it, right out.
I would do the occasional score. I thought it was the most thrilling thing. It was instant. You made the music and they played it right away to millions of people. I found it thrilling.
There aren't reasons why you like this song or this piece of music, or don't like it. It's just, it's either right or wrong, you know?
People are getting ready for music that makes them feel happy again rather than being depressed at the way the world is going right now.
Everyone wants to talk about it, and right now music, flat-panel televisions, a whole host of new handheld devices are fun to talk about and very exciting to look at.
The blues echoes right through into soul, R&B and hip hop. It's part of the make-up of modern music. You can't turn your back on the blues.
I can't write a line without music - it provides just the right amount of distraction to keep me focused. Clearly, I still miss the noisy roommates.
I am the princess of G.O.O.D. Music, the first lady of G.O.O.D. Music, the baby of G.O.O.D. Music. I'm kinda the spoiled brat right now. I could get whatever I want.

I'm not an early bird at all. Ideally, on Saturday morning I'd allow myself a lovely lie-in. 10:45 would be just right.
Who is to say that 5 men 10 years ago were right whereas 5 men looking the other direction today are wrong.
And opposite the bench, the dock, divided by a partition, with the women to the left and the men to the right, as it is on the stairs or the block in polite society.
It's true that, in Iran, women have half of the rights men do. And yet 66 per cent of students are women.

My mom had to beg the guys to let me play. I couldn't even play the drums right - Brian had to show me.
My mom always said fighting with me as a kid was like going to court. I'm trying to realize that being right is not the most important thing.
My pops and my mom started playing Marvin Gaye and the Isley Brothers and all these people, but at the same time, they always had Snoop on right behind it in the same mix.
You've read the Torah, right? So you know the Torah defines marriage as being between one man and one woman.
