In the course of my career, which has been an incredible rollercoaster ride, I look at the journey and think it's been immense.

When you first come out of the box, you want to play the 300-capacity place, then it's 1,600-capacity, then it's an arena - so, do you want to be in a stadium now? The ego keeps telling you that it's not enough.

I grew up on dancehall music, and it holds a strong place in my heart.

When I write a song, I get the melody right first, and then hopefully I can back it up with a lyric that has to respect the melody.

I think we will find more and more ways in which technology invades our artistic spaces, so music is something you will need more than ever because it is there in time and in space and for that moment only.

If people don't invest into new manufacturing, renewable energy, new health-care technology - these are our revenues and our bookings.

I think there's a certain paranoia about science because there is a certain risk related to science which people are very wary about, and therefore, there is an inherent risk aversion to science and technology or, at least, science and technology of unknown.

The danger of the Internet is cocooning with the like-minded online - of sending an email or Twitter and confusing that with action - while the real corporate and military and government centers of power go right on.
