I thought people cared about music in a deep way, so I was writing to that spirit in people and in myself. It was me, thinking I knew what was up. Youth, who else can change the world?
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was always into music. I think everyone is when they're a teenager, as a way to drown out the world.
Music is a thing that changes people's lives. It has the capacity to make young people's lives better.
I sort of feel like music saved my life when I was young. This is the one thing that I knew I was good at.
I've done a lot of growing up since the age of 16 and I really wanted that to be reflected in my music.
I'm surrounded by music; I always was when I was growing up and continue to be. And I love music. And when I imagine a fictional world, I imagine there's music in it for those people, too.
In my old age, my mind gets more open, and I listen to so many different types of music and I guess that all reflects in my work.
We're all affected by music. It has the power to inspire, uplift us, change our moods, and even alter consciousness.
When I was 15, I did not know nothing about what concerned the world of music.
I'm really open-minded, musically. The credo I ascribe to is, 'Take care of the music, and let the rest take care of itself.' Growing up, I was a sponge and soaked up everything I was exposed to.
I just really longed to do music that reflected me as an adult and music that I thought was for other adults.
