I really just tried to make a record full of great songs, which is the goal I always have.

I wanted to make an album that takes a journey through all my favorite periods in music and then culminates in something that will most likely end my career.

I've always loved soul, R&B, doo-wop and blues, and I've wanted to make a record like that for years.

I'm a songwriter who just wants to bring people great songs.

I've made more than 50 records with a wide range of music. I've often veered to check something out.

For my first album I wanted to make a record that would be intimate, deeply personal, and honest.

I always want to make an album that lets people immerse in it, kind of like you get caught up in a good movie.

I just want to leave this world with a massive catalog of songs.

I have a lot of albums yet to do.

I plan on making a lot more records, and hopefully one of them will be Grammy worthy.
