I Hear Melodies And Hooks All Day.

You Have To Be Careful When It Comes To Copyrights, Whether Just Sounding Like Or Feeling Like Something Is Enough To Say You Violated Their Copyrights Because There's A Lot Of Music Out There, And There's A Lot Of Things That Feel Like Other Things That Are Influenced By Other Things. And You Don't Want To Get Into That Thing Where All Of Us Are Suing Each Other All The Time Because This And That Song Feels Like Another Song.

For Me There's Insecurity When You're Releasing An Album Because You Spend All Of This Time Working On That One Thing And Then Once It's Done, It's Done. After You Put It Out There To The Public You Never Know Which Songs Are Going To Work Or Even If The Album Is Going To Work As A Whole So There Is A Little Bit Of Nervousness Around Predicting What The Numbers Will Be And If It's Going To Be Well-received.

I Would Tell Myself, "love Yourself And Don't Be Afraid To Take Risks." I Was Often Afraid To Take Risks, Socially, Because I Was Young And A Little More Shy And Still Figuring Out Who I Wanted To Be. Sometimes I Look Back And Think, "i Should Have Just Been Bolder And More Confident."

I Don't Get To Listen To Music For Fun Very Often; A Lot Of What I'm Hearing Is For Work And Isn't Released Yet.

I Thought It Would Be Funny To Take A Photo In The White House Bathroom, I Take Pictures Everywhere I Go, But I Don't Think I Can Top That One.
