“ I check out artists like J. Cole, I check out Lupe, Donnis, and Wiz Khalifa. Because I’m in the hip-hop community, I’m kind of aware of what’s going on a certain level. But in the grand scheme of things, it’s so much. I’m always trying to find new stuff.”

“I play guitar. Bass. Piano. Cello. I also read music. [I played] Everything stated except the cello. I did a lot. I got a guitar solo on Strange Clouds. I also put [out] a lot of material that I have been working on acoustically.”

“I think my personality led me to things that led me to music and different artists like Outkast, Bjork, Gnarles Barkley, Goodie Mob, and rock musicians, like the Foo Fighters, My Chemical Romance, Coldplay. Even the earlier stuff by James Brown and Michael Jackson and Tina Turner. I’ve always been led to the right musicians who inspired me the right way at the right amount of time.”
