Read excerpts from his interview below.
On In My Feelings…
My goal was to make an album that is not just a bunch of singles, but an album that can be listened to from top to bottom… I wanted every song to say something, to be an experience and to be a complete body of work.
On how touring for the production of The Lion King led him to music…
That was a turning point in my life when I realized that entertainment was what I just had to do. Doing The Lion King, I realized that singing was a huge part of my life and I wanted to make good music for the world.
On how being around season actors helps with future endeavors…
It was more of a visual lesson than a verbal one for me. Just watching everyone in their habitat, I tried to soak up everything even between takes about what they each were trying to get out of conversations with the directors.
