I knew that when it came time for me to finally make my own album, it wasnt going to be about being a jock. It had to be more personal and intimate.

I am going to do as much as I can do, because I hate to do anything and not give my all.

I was hanging out with some of what my mother would consider the wrong kind of kids. With no direction, no motivation. I would hang out in the lunchroom all day, or the handball courts

After you date a player or two it's nice to just chill with a guy that can keep it basic.

Every weekend we've been trying to go out of town, to let people know about this album. I've been trying to host parties. It's hard, because it's a lot of work to do both.

Do you. Just focus on being the best version of yourself that you can be every day, and don't compare yourself to anyone else or worry about what they're doing.

I love what I do because I get to talk to the people who change the game: the influencers, visionaries who make things happen in music and culture. That's inspiring to me.

Go with the flow, but pray God keeps you afloat.

It's amazing what you can accomplish when you really strive to be better.

We have to remember that no matter how much hardship we go through in our life, there is always going to be that fragile place in our heart.

If you see something beautiful in someone, speak it.

Let your mind be harmonious with nature

I wanted to stay locked away from the pain and destruction. I didn't want to be strong. I didn't want to be the 'smart girl'. I was so very tired. I just wanted it all to be over.

You know… the airport is the only place you can walk around with no shoes, a glazed look on your face, and sleep on the benches and no one judges you.

Whoa!!! I heard I offended one of my all time favorite artists Ray Price by my statement “Nobody wants to listen to their grandpas music.

I really like natural, warm finishes. I like any of the natural stones, the oiled wood that is kind of a pre-finished flooring. I'm very tactile.

Any democratic sentiment propels my politics.

However naïve it sounds, or however inept the result, I think the idea is to try to alchemize the crap, not just mirror it all.

Building a set is like building a place, but it's a temporary place, because sets usually get torn down. Kind of unfortunate.

The world turns on a dime, the same now as it always has — which is to say, money makes the world go 'round. It's also what makes the world go spinning out of control.
