Growing up in Houston, the music scene is super boring.
The Dallas rap scene is growing, and hopefully we get to a level like Houston - everybody supporting each other, building each other up to be great.
I don't feel like I sound like anybody from Houston. I don't really feel like I have that Houston flow, that Houston sound. I feel like it's a mixture of all the things I've listened to growing up, or even my mom, in a way. I feel like I have my own style.
My music is just fresh. Everybody say it's a breath of fresh air because it's not like the normal Houston sound you would hear. I am from Houston and I use that same slang and I carry myself the same way as a Houstonian and I'm a Houston dude born and raised, but the music is a lil bit different due to the things I've seen and the things I've learned and put that into my music.
My dad took me to all the best rock and punk shows when I was growing up and music has always been a part of my life. So I'm very interested in the music scene and I suppose that's why I've ended up going out with musicians. Dave Pirner is still one of my best friends.
I like listening to old soul music. I like Sam Cooke. When I was growing up, the first things I was listening to was Whitney Houston and Cher. They were really big inspirations for me.
Mariah and Whitney Houston were my goddesses growing up.
I did the underground scene growing up. I lived in Albany, New York so I'd go see Stigmata, Hatebreed, Murphy's Law so I was in that whole scene.
The music scene as I look at it today is a little different from when I was growing up. The percentages are roughly the same - 95 percent rubbish, 5 percent pure.
The scene in South Florida when we were growing up, it wasn't divided. It wasn't different scenes. If you played loud or crazy music, you were on the same show.
I loved watching Cynthia Cooper growing up when she played for the Houston Comets.
I was a kid growing up in Houston, didn't have a lot - three younger brothers, a single mom. It was tough.
Very good training to just be a person is growing up in Canada. People say a lot of things about Canada, like that it's boring, but if you look around the world, you can praise boring. It's a very civilized place to grow up. I'm very proud of it.
My grandfather was a massive influence in my music. Growing up, he would play a lot of old-school records to me. A lot of jazz and swing music, actually, growing up.
I'm in a wonderful position now because the rise of the whole Houston scene, the scene that we've been doing for years that people really didn't embrace a long time ago and now they're embracing it. It's good to be in the middle of that during the uprising.
Sports helped me become super, super confident in my body growing up, especially in my high school and college careers. I wasn't going to be a hot prom chick that everyone wanted to go on dates with, but I was a stellar athlete.
Growing up, I was in all the musicals and everything... I'd come home from school and bash out a few Whitney Houston songs.
