I have a little pocket journal. I just put the pen on the paper and just go.
I think when you have one song that does really well, people love you from that song, or they hate you from that song.
I've been living a healthier life and, therefore, writing healthier music.
'Free Mind' was a song written over a couple of years. It was pretty much three different songs that I couldn't figure out how to put together - until one day, when I was in the studio, it kind of just fell into place.
Being able to play all over the world to different audiences and have them sing my lyrics back to me, even if they can't speak the same language, is crazy.
I love Erykah Badu. Every time I listen to her music, I'm, like, laying out all the instruments in the song, like, how I would loop it.
I love San Francisco for the music culture. There's this vibe there that I can't find anywhere else in the world. Easily one of the best places on the sea coast.
You can impact on people with music, and I love that because music impacts on me.
