I've played music that's terrible in the past, and not everyone likes you, which is fine.

You can impact on people with music, and I love that because music impacts on me.

I've got an awesome career happening, and I absolutely am so stoked with how it's all worked out.

If you get the chance to be a Bourke Street busker, you actually have to do an audition in front of a council panel. You get a roster every week that has your busking shifts on it - I'm serious: it's an actual job.

I think one of the reasons I've had success in hip-hop is that I can bring out vulnerability in people who are generally seen as tough guys. To me, when a hip-hop musician always plays tough, I find it annoying because I know they're not really like that - there's something deeper and vulnerable. There has to be, because they're human beings.

I didn't want to become like so many of the young people I've worked with who have money, fame, and success but don't know who they are as people.

We all have dreams, whether it be about success in our careers, improving our relationship with family and friends, or sorting out our finances.

I enjoy difficult tasks. What's hard is finding the people to do them and finding a team to actually enjoy success. That is the real challenge of success.
