It's just a lot of fun to be able to see your ideas come into fruition. And to see people translate the things that come out of my mind vocally. And to be able to produce vocals and give people my point of view musically. And to be able to sit in the crowd and see people sing the song that I wrote, it's an amazing feeling.

A song is a song and a hit record can change a life.

I'm very competitive; it's not enough just to have a few number ones. I want to have 200.
