The social networking sites are such good way to keep in touch with your fans, it's quick and simple and it keeps your fans interested in what you're doing.
Melanie Fiona is a singer, a songwriter, she's a super-girl. I can be silly, goofy, really chilled. She's like your cool chill girlfriend, sister-friend. I'm just like everybody else.
My parents leaving a third world country to a first world country and building from nothing - that's really inspiring to me and it's influenced me in a positive way.
When you're with your family you're with them and when you're working you're doing that. I definitely try to separate the time when I'm working and when I have my personal time.
I love Canada, always.
I live out of my suitcase and I'm happy to do so.
I consider myself more of an international artist than I do a one-territory artist, which I think is a blessing.
I always feel like music should be a universal language.
Before I could even hold a pen I was singing.
Bob Marley is one of the most recognized artists. He didn't care to be defined. People wondered, 'Is it reggae? Is it rock?' But at the end of the day they were still playing his music and that's what matters.
Canada can be tough for urban music.
Canada had the good health-care system and educational system. It was a privilege for me to grow up there.
My dad still calls me and makes sure I'm taking my vitamins.
I am a bit of a hopeless romantic. I really do have a faith and a belief in love, and when I love, I love hard.
