Songwriting isn't always something that's directly proportionate to the experience.
I'm not into cold weather, I like warm weather.
I can relate to soul, R&B... whatever people want to call me is fine. I just hope it makes them feel something.
I'm not a mass-appeal artist.
I'm always flattered and honored when people cover my music or sing my songs, no matter where it is.
I don't really know that there's any real rules for songwriting.
I don't really hang out with a lot of celebrities.
I don't know anything about music theory at all. Zero. But I don't really need to.
I don't know anyone who is a writer who isn't influenced by the relationships in their life.
