“I have lost a lot of people. I lost my mum at the age of eleven. I’m just being strong. I did a song called ‘Stand Strong.’
“I feel like strength and obviously, my faith has kept me going,”
He also took the opportunity to clear up some misconceptions about his life and persona, spoke on the importance of family and the divine gift of his talent.
