I've made a life and career as a professional musician.

I identify more as a musician than as a singer, because I play piano and percussion, and I engineer and produce everything that I do.

I think I've had the longest career of strength, focus, and still being able to sell records. I think I'm that guy. I'm still blessed with the opportunity to make music and pass out a message like, 'Life is good,' to the world.

Being a musician is what I do, but it's not what I am.

I love music so much I love what I do. I work very hard at being the best musician I can be because I love it.

I am a musician, but I'm another type of musician.

My dad's a bodybuilder. My whole life I've been taught to train the hard way. I believe in earning strength, not buying it. My grandfather raised me old school: In baseball, you work for whatever you get.

I don't consider myself a musician. I'm an artist.

I love my body. I'm very much OK with it. I don't think artists are ever the ones who have the problem with their weight, it is other people.
