I like to write about the things I care about. It's no fun to sing about things you don't like.

I never do a show where the people just sit there and look at me. They always sing along. It's going to be a fun time.

Collaboration is the way to go. It's very timely and fun to do.

Conservatives, they're like the Republicans to me. They don't do much. They have this whole hierarchy and boys' club thing going on. That doesn't help the regular person.

I'm so, so full of joy that America elected Obama. He didn't win because he was black - people voted for him because he had a plan and because he talked sense and because you believed him.

There are so many fun things that you live that you can write about and people of all ages can connect to.
