Every time I write a song my approach changes.

The people who are No. 1 are No. 1 for a reason.

My mom says I’m not allowed to move out, but I’m allowed. I said I have to FaceTime her every night to make dinner with her because I won’t be able to do it myself. So she said she’ll accept it if I do that.

There’s a lot more to success than just singing.

I’m a very spontaneous person. When I see something that might be fun or different, I will try it.

I’m always wanting to spread as much positivity as possible, so I really try to keep that the case with my fans and with the campaigns that I do.

There’s nothing that scares me more than, like, being in the ocean by myself.

Chance The Rapper is just unreal: he’s changing rap and really creating this whole amazing new style.

I think when you have raw emotion in a song, it makes it great.

The truth is lived, not taught.

This life is a process of learning.
