Mostly everything I've ever sung comes from a personal place.
Bey is a big sister; she's a huge supporter. I mean, the whole Destiny's Child family - Kelly and Michelle - they've always been great supporters of mine in all my endeavors.
I love a very alluring woman. I love a strong woman. I love a woman that wanders, that just wants to explore.
I just appreciate all the facets of a woman.
I always find time for my mother.
Musically, my palette is eclectic.
There's a plethora of genres that I've been introduced to, but that's only because of the foundation that was laid growing up in New Orleans. I know it's a cliche thing to say, but it's very gumbo-like. You get that here. You can mix well with all different walks of life. That's what New Orleans is. It's like no other place.
If you really want change, no one else is going to make that for you. It's all mental at first. Once you overcome that mental part, your body can do anything.
New Orleans is gumbo. You get so man types of things... jazz, folk, Zydeco.
It never dawned on me that I was sexy. I always thought of myself as the goofy kid.
I didn't get cool until I got to high school and people found out I could sing.
I like to be funny and make a girl laugh.
New Orleans is just so full of culture in the music content - blues, folk. I was introduced to a lot of things. My mother didn't keep me away from other music. She only kept me away from rap. The closest I got to rap was D'Angelo.
It's very tough to be away from someone you love or you're used to seeing all the time. But if you're truly in love, it will work. But it is difficult.
I consider myself an honest soul.
People sometimes call me Wolf.
I love acting. It's way different from singing, but I like really put my ten thousand hours in to be really good. I want to be a premier actor. I want Oscars, I want recognition, and I want to move people just as much as I move people with my music, the same with my acting.
When somebody notices me in the slightest, I can feel the eyes - boom-boom - as soon as they pass.
I'm from New Orleans, but I lived in L.A. for a very long time.
I've always had a love for music, and it developed as I learned jazz, blues, and gospel. And I performed with jazz singers in New Orleans.
