So my father was a person who never lied to me. If I had a question, he answered it. I knew a lot of things at a young age because I was intrigued.
A lot of people don't know the first time I was ever on national television I was a 'Soul Train' dancer.
My Vocation is my Vacation. I love what I do.
Family is always first.
Right now, I'm as single as a slice of American cheese.
Me personally, I wouldn't put my kids on television. But to each his own.
If I have a talent, it's already been exploited! I've shown everything I can do to the public.
I'm not geeky but I have my geeky, corky moments, and then I've got some aspects of cool in me, I guess.
I'm a musician. I play instruments. I dabble in the hip-hop field. That doesn't take vocal ability necessarily.
You can't love music without loving the Beatles.

But were both kids at heart. She is the funniest person ever and she has a great sense of humor. We connect at a spiritual level.
I'd love to do a film with Mariah. But it would have to be a comedy. She's the funniest woman in the world, she just cracks me up all the time.
It's fun having songs about parties and gigolos, but I really wanted to use my music as a form of art. Art is supposed to spark conversation and make people think, and I wanted to do that with this song
Oh yeah, the preacher's kid has to be the baddest one. If everyone is smoking weed, we've got to smoke crack. If you're throwing rocks, we've got to throw bigger rocks
