As a performer, I groove to my own songs.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Who you are as a performer is one thing, but when you're making records, you're dealing with musicians' tastes, their goals, their wants, their needs, everyone's individual pride.
I'm very hands-on with my own music.
Now that I'm coming out with my own record people can see I'm a solo artist.
I am a performer; that's what I like to do.
When you're an artist, you can only do your own stuff. Even if you only write for other people, you're really more focused on yourself. So while everybody's out touring, I'm working on records.
The blessing of being able to write music and let music speak for itself is you let the melodies and let the lyrics and the groove talk to people instead of me talking to people.
An album is such a personal thing. It's something I always wanted to do. It's me doing me, singing as me.
When I perform, I like to immerse myself in the music, and I just try to get off on the diversity of music.
I enjoy singing my songs in front of people.
A lot of the way I sing is playing off other musicians. It's what I love to do the most.
