We didn't have a whole lot of cash growing up. My mom was a single parent for a while before my stepdad came into the picture.
My father said, 'Son, when you grow up, I don't want you to be a member of a party that caters to the oppressed and the poor. You have to aspire to be a member of a party that is happy, winning and influential.'
I didn't grow up in the typical happy American home, but music was always a safe and wonderful place for me to go.
