I put myself into character for my songs.

I think that when you're making your way up in the music industry, you have all these heroes and the reasons why they are your heroes. As soon as you get into the industry, your guidelines change a little bit. For me, my heroes now are great people first and great artists second.

I look upon myself as a musical bricklayer with architectural aspirations.

When I first got into the music scene, I was inspired by different songwriters. I like to dress from the '50s and '60s. I like to paint a picture of that era through my music and clothes. I am inspired by a whole a lot of things, from doo-wop to gospel and soul music.

Yeah, I've always considered myself a musical person.

I'm a very musical person.

My passion for music has always inspired my designs.

I've always considered myself something of a musical rebel.

Music is always a part of my characters' make-up.

I do have musical background; I sing.
