I had to make different kinds of music for everybody but still keep it classic T-Pain at the same time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love a lot of very sentimental music, but I shouldn't necessarily be the person who makes it.
Music has to change. I don't want to stay the same forever.
But my everyday music is classic rock. It's what I relate to the most and where my heart is.
I think it's really cool to embrace the pain of something that may have hurt you and be able to express it through music.
It's been a transformative period and I really wanted to make music from what I've experienced.
I grew up listening to everything. I have such a love for music, but I don't want to make the same album over and over again.
I kind of always wanted my own music to just sound like, like me, I suppose, like if I was music it would be the music I make, I think.
I always felt like there was a certain standard of music that I had to do from the beginning, even when I didn't have the recognition that I have now.
But, I've always loved John Mayer and I think T-Pain is brilliant.
They can sonically sound like me, but nobody's ever gonna be able to write songs like T-Pain. There's only one of those.
