I have really dope parents.

First time I met Kehlani was through Jahaan Sweet - a really dope producer; then we linked up in Toronto, and the vibe was just lit. She's a really warm human being.

I love my smart, supportive, if-I-see-something-I'm-going-to-speak-up type of men.

Me personally, I have a small circle. Part of that is because sometimes, you meet people, and you can feel the synthetic energy.

I remember that I wanted the Razor scooter, and my dad went to the garage, spent one or two days, and built one out of wood and painted it with the Colombian colors.

My mom says that she caught me one day in front of the TV watching opera. I was trying to sing back the opera. She saw that I really liked music, and so she put me in piano lessons when I was about three years old.

I feel like my objective in music is to take a hammer and nail and chip away a piece of my heart and give it to someone, so I feel, with merch, it's a tangible parallel of that.

I was all depressed because my ex cheated on me. It was hard for me to get over that.

In life, unfortunately, I've had multiple experiences where people that I thought I could depend on have switched up, or I've caught them in lies, and their true colours have shown.

When I'm performing, I have to tell myself, 'Wait a minute. You need to be here right now. You need to hold these memories and remember time is golden.'

I think about legacy, of course. I don't want to make my life nothing. I want to know that I died and made a massive difference. I want to know that my life purpose was bigger than myself, and I want to pay forward because the amount of people that have helped me... the list of people that have contributed to where I am now is insane.

It's hard to get someone to sit down and listen to an album in its entirety.

Kali Uchis is a dope person. Her voice, her style - she's so unique.

Ugh, I'm a Gemini!

The last thing I want to do is get too happy.

There are things I still criticize myself heavy for. There are days I have to pick myself back up, but that, to me, is success; it's getting to both sides: physical and the spiritual, mental. Just peace. Peace of mind.

If you consume something that's poisonous, you don't consciously think of vomiting; your body just does it. It's a reflex. When I'm happy, I don't instantly feel the need to get rid of that feeling. But when I'm sad, I think maybe that's what happens.

I ended up moving to Miami and bartending, but the party atmosphere is a black hole down there. People party all the time, and if you're working in the industry, you're sleeping all day and at the club all night, day after day.

I'm all about polarities and juxtapositions.

You just need to create and be open with that energy. The second that you are precious with it, it's almost like you showing the world you have a limited amount.

Someone can be miles away, but if they're in your heart, that means they're locked in your head, too.

I feel like humans, when you're faced with decisions, you can go up and down: duality.

I'm just happy to know that no part of me thinks that I made it. Everything in me says you need to keep going, keep working.

I think life would be a lot easier if people were able to stand in their mistakes and not backtrack. If you did something wrong, own it. Like, hold your own.
