When you write a song, a song has longevity

Even if I don't release it myself, somebody else might hear it and want to record it. When you write a song, it gives it that potential.

When someone picks up one of my songs and records it, I'm a flattered man, it's a blessing to me

Motown will always be a heavy-duty part of my life because those are my roots

Songwriting is my gift from God

I always try to write a song, I never just want to write a record.
