I want people to listen to the lyrics of each song and absorb the music fully before they look at me and make a judgment about what they think my music will or should sound like.

We won't ever see another one like Paul Scholes. He is a legend and a real benchmark. He is not interested in the modern-day footballer's life off the pitch, but he is a world-class player on it.

It was hard walking around the pitch... You do that when you win trophies. The fans were throwing flags on and that was hard to take, something which put a lump in your throat.

I think there's no purpose for writing music if it is not meaningful.

There are countless artists whose shoes I am not worthy to polish - whose prints would not pay the printer. The question of judgment is a puzzling one.

I am good. I live good. I think good. I don't have to feel good to be good, I take my goodness wherever I go.

I live in Brooklyn. By choice. Those ignorant of its allures are entitled to wonder why.
