“The more real you get, the more unreal everything else is.”

I still believe in peace, love and understanding.

I’m not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.

Love is a promise, love is a souvenir, once given never forgotten, never let it disappear.

I really thought that love would save us all.

It’s better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out.

Music’s all right John, but you’ll never make a living out of it.

Love is needing to be loved.

It’s amazing how low you go to get high.

Everything is clearer when you’re in love.

Happiness is inside you, not with another person.

The artist’s role isn’t to tell people how to feel, but reflect.

It matters not who you love, where you love, why you love, when you love or how you love, it matters only that you love.

A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.

It’s weird not to be weird.

Tell the truth and make it rhyme.

Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.

A lot of women reach out to me and tell me my music has given them the courage and confidence to break up with not just any boyfriend, but an unhealthy relationship

I know I have this image but in reality, if you take all my records, I had to use five or six tracks.

Come oh come ye tea-thirsty restless ones -the kettle boils, bubbles and sings, musically.

When I drop a freestyle, I’m like, ‘This freestyle gotta go hard’ or when I do something it’s, ‘How can we top this?’

I’m just inspired by life and, growing up, I listened to all types of different sounds, genres, and areas of music.

Music is your way to change the frequencies of everything around you and move your own body, move your whole environment.

Music is what tell us that the human race is greater than we realize.

I love classical jazz.
