I started listening to gospel when I was a little boy and my grandmother used to rock me on her lap.

I listen to gospel music.

I've grown up on gospel and blues music, and now it's a huge part of who I am.

I'm associated with gospel music in the minds of millions of people.

I sang in choir as a kid.

I grew up singing in church. I've been doing that since I was 3 years old. Singing was a blessing for me to do.

I've been singing forever; I grew up singing in church.

Gospel music played a huge part of my life. I was too scared to audition for the choir, but through my own music, I was also able to find spirituality for myself.

Actually I have been singing since I was a kid.

I came up in gospel.
