Alison Krauss is definitely my favorite singer that's ever lived. I've never heard anyone like her.
If you were to hold me to a standard of, 'What are you doing, singing about a scratch-off ticket at your level of success?' then my music's gonna be ridiculous.
When I got married, I hired a great choir - the St. James Choir, an all-black gospel choir - to sing at my wedding.
I never thought I'd be singing this for my friend.
I can't help but include some of the lighthearted stuff. I guess that's the way I observe things. My favorite saying is, 'If you're going to laugh about something later, you might as well start now.
I don't know where I get it from. My family has no sense of humor, none. It's a genetic mutation, I guess. I tried drawing naked pictures when I was in the third grade. You'd have seen how funny my mom was then. Or when I took a bat to a car my dad had been buffing all day. He's not funny.
Buck gave birth to a movement. At the time when he came through, his music was so different. He was a maverick in the true sense of the word.
I don't have any interest in doing something that's weak musically.
Some artists would rather go in there and let some other things dictate the kind of record they do, but I've got such a great team.
There are many things I can improve on. I'm challenged every day, and I still want to work hard and earn what I've been afforded.
It surprises a few people, we have a full string orchestral intro on the album. I think this album is what a sequel should be. It goes to a new place.
It's fun to be up for multiple things. It's nice to look at the list this time and it not all be for one song.
It's fun to be up for multiple things.
It should feel a lot like my other albums that way, in that it's a progression and there are different themes and you go from one topic to another and it feels a little bit like a life journey, I think.
