That's absolutely one of my main goals, to have a number one on Billboard. That's a big thing for me. That means people are buying and listening to your music.

When you look at the artists who have come up through 'Billboard' over the years, it's incredible.

You feel a sense of elation seeing yourself on a billboard.

My whole life, even as a kid, I would say, 'I want to be on a billboard!' To be on a fashion billboard, for a brand, is a life dream.

I've always thought that whether I'm writing or not, I've gotta pick the best songs, whether or not they're mine. I'm not gonna sing them just because I wrote them. I've gotta find the best songs to make the best record I can.

I'm a great singer.

'Billboard' needs to tell the truth, shake things up.

I'm a commercial-minded songwriter. I'm here to make a living and be on the radio.

I know I'm not the best. I'm not the best singer, I'm not the best songwriter, I'm not the best player.
