I always believed it would happen and stuck to my guns.
But I'm a great father. That's why I got custody.
You've got to work hard for your success and you've got to have a steady presence. That's the secret.
Chris Rock is a good friend of mine, and he is hysterical.
My past is a bit checkered.
I'm all about change, and I know things are going to move forward in life, and that's just how it goes.
I didn't want to go out and change anything. I just wanted to make the music that was part of my background, which was rock and blues and hip-hop.
As a musician, you want the music in as many hands as you can get it into. More importantly, I want people to get the music for the fairest price, and in the most convenient way. And that's really turned into iTunes when you're talking about selling albums.
I don't read books. I like to read newspapers and magazines, but I've never learnt to enjoy books or novels.
I hold the Key to my Own Success! (You do too!)
All girls want to be sexy.
Girls are always like, 'Oh, you're much better-looking in person than in pictures.' I'm kinda like, 'Er, thank you? I think? As in, I'm not as ugly as you thought?'
I've always made music from the heart, and that's what I do.
There's no way anyone in the world is having more fun than I am. I truly believe that.
