I'm a very spontaneous person. When I see something that might be fun or different, I will try it.
I loved entertainment and acting, performing. I just liked the stage and having the spotlight and stuff.
No matter where you play, a stadium or an arena, when you're present on stage, it's going to feel like a theater.
I felt like there were so many talented people who should be getting what I have.
I don't want to just be a teenage star. I want to be known by parents, and I want them to go, 'Oh I love that song; he's really good for his age. My daughter loves him, but I love him, too.'
It's hard for me to just say, 'Wow, this is amazing - I'm famous. I'm living the dream.' I sit there and think, 'I'm scared - this can go away tomorrow.' My dad always says that I'm a tortured soul because I'm never pleased; I never feel like I deserve what I've achieved.
I'm tortured because I care. I'm always upset about not doing things as good as I think I could have because I care.
I'm tortured because I care.
Chance The Rapper is just unreal: he's changing rap and really creating this whole amazing new style.
When I put that first Vine out, I was just doing it for fun; there was no wanting to become an artist.
I'm still a little certain I'm a wizard.
Definitely, it's hard being a young artist and being taken seriously.
I think the world is becoming a place where younger and younger people can do great things, and I just hope I can inspire other young people to do the same.
I promise you, if you look at YouTube and see some of my first covers, you will hear that I don't sound good. But I was so obsessed with it and wanted so much to be good at it that I forced myself to figure out what sounds right and what sounds wrong.
I started watching YouTube videos and singing, and it became something that I was obsessed with.
I was one of those kids who was just always on the Internet, always on YouTube, so it was easy for me to do it. It's not work. It's just fun.
