On realizing he made it to the Grammys: “It was the craziest day of my life…I never thought I would get there… I just started bawling in my mother’s arms…it was like, ‘Damn, I’m really here, and I’m not a spectator. I’m down here on the floor. I’m one of the artists.’ That was just a crazy realization…that’s something they can never take away from me: I will always be a Grammy nominee.”

On losing his anonymity: “I just have to accept that I don’t have privacy…which is not something I’ll ever complain about because this is what I wanted.”

On being extra cautious with his online presence: “I’m so scared…now I try to do a prank with another artist or something, and there’ll be a TMZ article about it, I have to hear from my publicist, and it’s just…not the same anymore.”

On his current relationship status: “I’m still a man that feels emotions. I’m still very single. And I still deal with some issues that have to do with love.”

On rooting for his peers: “I’ll always be a supporter. Let’s just say if I’m ever involved in a beef, I didn’t start it!”

On Taylor Swift calling him “amazing”: “I really respect everything she’s done.”
