I smoked some pot as a kid, but I just never did drugs.

Did people think I sounded black? Totally, but that was a marketing tool as well, but also this is how I grew up and these are my influences.

My first tour I was on the road for 18 months. You're just out there promoting.

I just try to get out of my own way because if anyone is their own worst enemy, it's usually you.

That's really my goal now. I'm trying to be a positive role model to my kids and to just enjoy this ride, because it's hard. It's hard to enjoy it when you're in it.

I never did smoke that much pot; never was a big pothead.
