Tyrese is my boy.

I've been to acting coaches and everything, but they had to open me up and all that, so now I'm getting better with it.

In acting you have to not be yourself. It's like whatever character is put on, you have to just to turn into that person.

A lot of people bit into Timbaland's sounds.

I can take truth.

You don't alienate the people that helped you and started you out.

I think any smart businessman would go where the money is bigger, but I also feel like you don't forget your roots either.

That's what people love and respect about me. I'm going to give you 100 percent.

I still have my talent, knowledge and I have my work ethic.

I never wanted to be flavour of the month.

R&B touches your heart.

It's just a good thing to be a part of history and a lot of people will not be able to say that.

Anything that's going to continue to keep you out there as an artist, you've got to appreciate and embrace it.

It is my duty to bring awareness to people in need.

I'm glad I was part of history, here long after I'm gone.

I don't want to put out a CD of album songs. I'm gunning for every song to be a single.

I really admire other voices.

I don't like to go out a lot. It's trouble.

I'm a firm believer when I'm doing my job to not want anybody around.

R&B is everywhere, and I am who I am.

Aaliyah was in a class by herself.

I think everyone should aspire to be someone great, and that was one of the greats. Aaliyah was one of the great ones.

One of my daughters wants to act, but none of them sing - well, one of them sings but she's got some ways to go. I love her acting. I'm actually trying to put her in some classes and everything so she can learn the art of acting. I don't want her to get no parts because her dad is Ginuwine. I want her to earn it.

A lot of people don't get second chances.
