It was all devastating. I`d never dealt with losing anyone close to me, and I didn`t know where to put it in my life. I was very young then. Buddy taught me so much in such a short time.
I was king of the mountain for a long time, well, I don`t want that no more. I like to perform every once in a while for people who want to see me, and cut albums of music that is what I`m really about.
I mean, I think we`re put here on earth to make your own destiny, to begin with. I don`t think there`s anything you can do this way or that way to change anything.
