I like low-maintenance girls, but at the same time, classy. She needs to take care of herself. But also be a girl who isn't afraid to get sweaty and play basketball, so it's cool if she's a tomboy.
I didn't understand that I could sing until I was like 11 or 12. My mom heard me singing around the house and she said, What are you doing? You really can sing! So then I started going to school and singing to the girls.
I'm 18 in this album. I'm not losing fans, and I'm not disrepecting women, but you reach the maturity of taking it to the next level with a girl. It was only necessary for me to have at least one song like that.
I used to feel so shy speaking to girls. It was even worse when they were around their crew because they would diss me.
If you're sexy and you know it put your hands up in the air. Put your hands up in the air, girl, put your hands up.
I love attention. If I see a gang of girls? That makes me dance even more!
I love sneakers on a girl. I don't know why, but I guess it's because I'm still a young. I really like just like a girl who has style - a girl who does her own thing, is unique in what she's wearing and works what she's got.
It's the Roman numeral for 10. 5/5/89 is my birthday: 5 plus 5 is 10, and this is my tenth year since I got into music. 'X' is the 24th letter in the alphabet, and I will turn 24 when this album comes out. 'X' is also a metaphor, as in 'ex-girlfriend': it implies you're progressing and moving on in life, not holding on to the past and your old ways.
With dates I like to cater a girl. We do whatever she likes. If she was open to what I wanted to do, it probably wouldn't be a dull date, because I am a jock.
Girls are losing their virginity at 15, 16. I'm not promoting that. But my songs are talking... about me becoming a man.
When you go to Portland, ... Clive is pretty much a father figure to the girls and the boys. He takes you almost as his son or daughter.
In moving to a Web services-based SOA, we've quickly seen the need for more formal communications as our service teams become more distributed.
It's hard now being a young performer, it's a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. You know, dealing with schoolwork and friendships and everything. But it's great, though. You gotta cope.
That's my main goal is living, living and living happily.
