I don't repeat myself and I don't look back because everything is hard work and the only way forward is to continue to be creative.
I listen to a lot of '80s stuff, like 'Owner of a Lonely Heart,' by the group Yes. And Mr. Mister's 'Broken Wings.'
When I first met Aaliyah - it time for the world to hear this, I'm gonna give a little secret - I was in love with her.
I'm the type of person who tries to save the world.
I'm a grown man. I ain't got time for all that 'you say, she say.'
I listen to a lot of alternative types of music: I listen to a lot of Chinese music, I listen to a lot of Asian music. It might surprise you, but I listen to a lot of Arabic music. And I don't care - music is music.
It's probably hard to be married to me. It's not easy.
People do not respect music anymore... They go by what's hot... If you're hot, you deserve 4 or 5 Grammys... Madonna is a genius and she only has 2 or 3 Grammys... What is that about?
I'm definitely a risk-taker with my music.
Don't get in my personal life.
An artist don't make you bigger than life - being that person that can break artists can make you bigger than life.
I look at Lil Wayne as being from my generation.
I do music for the fans. I want to lift fans up.
I work out all the time. I love it.
