I don't think I get the respect as a singer. With this record, I wanted to bring respect to my band. ↗

I have major respect for Kenny Chesney and Carrie Underwood and Sugarland. They are wonderful. They're superstars in the music business. ↗

I think people who go out and tell you how much they're gonna change things are the people who end up being just another whatever. I'm never trying to change anything. That's not for me. ↗

I work hard to let my wife know how much I love her. I try to do that every day. ↗

I'm a kid who grew up in an all African-American neighborhood and got into schools and aspired to just be me, and didn't worry about labels or anything. Just wanted to be a success at what I did. ↗

I'm lucky my wife is a strong woman. She's one of the stronger people I've ever met. It's hard for me to be away, but I know my home life is fine because my wife is there. ↗

I've known Tiger since he was 18. Tiger is a great guy. I am so happy for him right now. ↗

It was important to me to find a label that wouldn't back out after a first single. Everyone's so used to hearing me with Hootie, they're going to be skeptical. ↗
