I would love to do some collaborations for my album - the more the merrier! It's fun to experiment and get to tap into different genres and sounds through collaborations.
I definitely want to put together an amazing debut album with some really dreamy collaborations.
I learn a lot from my experiences and collaborations. Most of my collaborations are meant for me to learn.
There are so many ideas that I have in my mind, of projects that I would love to tackle, people I would love to work with, genres I would love to experiment with, and sounds that don't fit any of my previous projects that I need to find a home for.
I don't do a lot of collaborations that I don't believe in. Actually, I don't do any collaborations that I don't believe in.
I love collaborations because they take your music in a different way.
I'd like to do more collaborations because collaboration creates different viewpoints.
I'm not a huge fan of covers in general, but collaborations always make them more fun - they're sort of neutral territory.
I want to save duets and collaborations for outside of the album. With the albums, I like it just being me.
Working with Pharrell was a dream... Collaborations like that are where you come up with sounds that maybe you wouldn't have found otherwise.
Collaborations aren't easy, but you definitely get something highly different than had you done it on your own. That's part of the experience.
Have different people in your fold. Have cross-disciplinary collaborations.
I suppose in some ways that's why my collaborations worked out, because I would go in the studio with such enthusiasm and it would never be a chore for me. I was never itching for the process to be done so we could get out live. It's a different matter for me now. Now I've noticed that I actually have one eye or one ear on how I'm going to do it on stage. And maybe that's because I'm the frontman in the group; I do believe that any good frontman should be impatient in the studio to get out.
I try to do collaborations with as many artists as possible. It's really excellent and fun to actually work with another songwriter.
All my collaborations happen in different ways. Sometimes it's through a chance meeting at a festival or event, while others can happen just off the back of me liking their music and reaching out.
In the end all collaborations are love stories.
One of my dream collaborations is to work with Sade. I would love to work with Andre 3000, Miguel.
