I don't ever use my name for anything in terms of getting the music heard.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't want to put a name on my music. Other people can put a name on what I do. It's just the union of what I've been listening to and what I've been learning. It has some elements of classical music, it has some rock, it has some jazz, but I don't want to give it a name.
I hope I don't give music a bad name.
A name doesn't make the music. It's just called that to differentiate it from other types of music.
I don't like putting a name on my music. It's not just country and rap; it's got Southern rock, classic rock.
Out of all the R&B artists that have come out, I think my name has been used most in hip-hop songs.
I'm not deluded enough to think that everyone who knows my name is a listener. You know, I hope that part of that interest - part of that public interest - has to do with me still making records that people like.
I was never in the business of trying to put my name out there - I was really focused on music and records and being in the studio.
I like to make my name of songs strange.
Now, everybody knows my music. So that's really cool. A lot of kids know it. Now, when I go to a sports game, everybody knows my name.
One day when I have a band I will have a band name, but since it's just me I feel it should just be my name. For me it doesn't make much sense since the music is from me and about me. I haven't ever been in a band.
