Quote

I see myself as a composer who plays music and likes to play with other people, and not just as a solo artist.

I have a lot of respect for all the artists I get compared to, even if, as an artist, you prefer to have your own identity.

I never envisioned myself as a solo artist; I was always part of a band.

Over the years, I was never really driven to become a solo artist, but I was curious to find out who I was as an individual creative person. It's taken some time, but now I feel I've truly paid my dues. I guess I'm at a point now where I'm more comfortable in my own skin.

I've always thought of myself as so unsuited to be a frontman.

People sometimes ask if I want to be a solo artist, but it just wouldn't be any fun being on your own.

Now that I'm coming out with my own record people can see I'm a solo artist.

I am isolated as an artist, not as a person.

I probably should have a brand, but I think you can't get the best artists to work for you if you're branded. I get the trade-off, and I really would like to be more famous for my work, get more credit for my achievements.

I never imagined I'd be a solo artist. And now I couldn't imagine being part of a group.
