“That’s probably one of the biggest misconceptions about me as an artist that I’m always locked in, and I’m always trying new things. Now, whether or not I like them is a whole other conversation," he explained.  "“But I have to keep the pen moving. It’s my form of sanity. And it also has given me the opportunity to learn myself — you know, find out who I am. Because when you write, you have to sit and go through the emotions and be vulnerable about it, whether it’s a fun song or a sad song or it got some type of depth."
