I'm just, 'Hi, I'm Shamir. I'm gonna sing, hug you, then you can buy my album.'

Mormons aren't gonna buy my album but, you know, what are you gonna do?

I wish I could just hug you all, but I'm not gonna.

If you listen to most of my songs, the lyrics are pretty kind of dark, but I like to put it behind happy music because then it evens it out... I'm really happy, actually. Obviously I have my bad moments, but I always challenge myself to not put negativity out there because there's already enough.

If I like it, it's gonna be on my album. You can't please everyone.

I can hit baritone notes, and I can sing in the soprano range if I wanted to. I did this thing a long time ago where I did a duet with myself. I sound like two different people.
