I’m excited for you guys to see different sides to me in the future.

“Shifting my energy and focus to what I’m most excited about is what is right for me and I hope you’ll continue to support whatever creative projects I’m out here doing!

I really love this album and I just want my fans to enjoy this with me. I hope I see so many of you on tour! (sic)”
