I've just been learning how to direct my own videos, choreography, doing costumes... every creative opportunity there is with my music I've taken.

Sometimes when you're an artist, you need to be in your own head; you need to stay in it to be able to get to a good place.

I feel like my music has so many different things going on. I've always worked with many different producers. And a lot of times, each of them has a different thing that I really love about what they do.

There's so many different kinds of songs that could be pop songs. I don't think pop songs should sound the same.

I don't think any collector knows his true motivation.

Oh first, let me tell you how amazed I am by the wealth of talents in the Philippines. I remember watching a lot of home videos about Filipino artists, and they are really very talented. That really motivated me to always do my best and to stay inspired.

Though involvement in music and the arts can't cure all the ills of society, I do believe that the inspiration they provide has the potential to help us reflect, at times, on the better angels of our natures.

People need motivation to do anything. I don't think human beings learn anything without desperation.
