I wasn't a perfect thing at 17. I didn't have confidence. I was hunched over and real embarrassed, and I didn't want to be in the limelight. But it changed over time.

I feel like, if I'm going to have young, impressionable people listening to my music, then I'm going to respect that.

Fifteen is around the time when my parents broke up, and all I was listening to was 2Pac.

I'm not embarrassed by any of my music. I'll even own up to the old Backstreet Boys albums.

Old-school hip hop, i.e., whatever was popular when you were nineteen, is great. Everything since then is intolerable.

It's nice to be able to backtrack and not be embarrassed by the music you used to listen to.

I didn't even listen to any music until I was 19, really. I just wanted to be famous. But I didn't say it to anyone because I was really embarrassed at the thought.

I grew up listening to - it's kind of embarrassing - all classical music.

I don't know if it's embarrassing, but I have a lot of girl Christian music.
