Music is the most powerful form of communication in the world. It brings us all together. Even religion separates us, but a hit record unites us across religious beliefs, race, politics.

At an early age, I started my own paper route. Once I saw how you could service people and do a good job and get paid for it, I just wanted to be the best I could be in whatever I did.

I have had fans make me the big picture collages of the photo books I have had fans send me birthday cakes. . . sing to me on my voicemail. I have had fans flash me. I have had older fans give me their bras and underwear onstage.

Man, I just feel blessed. . . I was in a situation where the only way I could come out of it was by putting my faith in God. No matter how good my lawyers were, no matter how much celebrity I had, everything was just stacked up against me. .
