I'm not a pop act, churning stuff out really quickly. I find the music that arises from that style of working is distracted, not particularly profound.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Pop music can absorb so many peculiar talents, ranging from the completely nonmusical poseur who just uses music as a kind of springboard for a sense of style, to people who just love putting all that complicated stuff together, brick by brick, on their computers, to people like me who like playing conceptual games and being surprised.
I certainly have a fascination with pop music as a musical form, not necessarily as a lifelong commitment. I guess you could say I'm like a Casanova of music. I can't seem to settle down with one musical form.
I do focus my energy on music, but it's just the way that the industry works. I kind of have to take what I can get when it comes to acting and show up so they'll hire me. And music I get to do when I have time. It's not that I focus less, it's just the way it works.
In terms of, like, getting into a mindset, I use music all the time when I'm working.
I love music and I love acting. I always keep that in the forefront, not all the other distractions around me.
Even though I'm known as a pop musician, I have a seriousness about what I do.
When I perform, I like to immerse myself in the music, and I just try to get off on the diversity of music.
When making music I sink myself into the process as deeply as I can and forget all of the success.
I am totally unapologetic about pop music.
I embraced being a pop artist, but I like doing it on my own terms, at my own pace.
