I don't think my music's as traditional as people make it out.

There has always been a feeling with people that they love my singing but not always the choice of material.

A lot of singers find a musical genre people like and stick with it. That's being a conformist. I sing ballads, rock, salsa, rap.

If I've got a talent, it's for picking the right song at the right time for the right audience. And I can always get people to sing with me.

I've always been a singer, but I don't know if I was always a natural performer.

People ask me where I got my singing style. I didn't copy my style from anybody.

I enjoy all aspects of singing and I'm luckily given the choice to be part of different styles of music.

Anything I sing is supposed to be genuine. It's not supposed to be make-believe or I'm making something for the crowd to jump or to hold up their hands.

It is one of the most validating things for an artist like me, to have people sing along to your songs.

If I were to categorize what I sing, I have many different influences, and a lot of them are from back in time.
