Every time I'm ever in L.A., if I have anytime off - which is rare - I'll go straight to the basketball court and play. That's a way for me to escape and get my mind off everything. I'm so competitive, so if I'm playing basketball, all I'm thinking about is winning.

I feel like people are so closed-minded at times.

Trevor Jackson

I've been given the tools necessary to be a great musician, a great entertainer, and great person that's gonna inspire everyone.

Trevor Jackson

There are so many people telling you no, but if you love what you do, no one can stop you.

Trevor Jackson

That's what you have to learn with life. It's your life at the end of the day. There's really no right or wrong way to do things. Everybody has a way they think you should do it. So why not do it your way, you know what I mean, respectfully.

Trevor Jackson

You gotta be great - you have one life.

Trevor Jackson

I don't come from any type of entertainment. I come from a basketball family. My dad still says, 'Trevor, are you sure don't want to play basketball? You can play in college and go to the NBA!' But I did play.

Trevor Jackson

I'm in Atlanta all the time shooting and recording. That's why I stayed.

Trevor Jackson

There is no point of doing anything if you're not going to do it all the way.

Trevor Jackson

When you say 'R&B,' people's minds automatically go in a place. How about I just say, 'Here's a tape; you can check it out on iTunes. You tell me.'

Trevor Jackson

I know everything that I do is going to be more powerful and touch more people in a positive way than if I go out there and cause havoc.

Trevor Jackson

I'm that type of person that if I feel like I'm doing the same thing in life, then I'm stuck. Always gotta be moving and doing something different.

Trevor Jackson

I feel like a lot of people have a hard time finding what they do, or they have a job or career and not a passion. That's miserable for me. Just find your purpose; understand that you have one life to live.

Trevor Jackson

Any project that I put out, I never want it to sound like the first one. It can have some vibes or stuff that matches, but I want it to be growth, progression, and you can't be comfortable when you're growing. If it feels good and it sounds good, it's good.

Trevor Jackson

I feel like we sometimes let our emotions and anger get in the way.

Every time I'm ever in L.A., if I have anytime off - which is rare - I'll go straight to the basketball court and play. That's a way for me to escape and get my mind off everything. I'm so competitive, so if I'm playing basketball, all I'm thinking about is winning.

Trevor Jackson

Most importantly, I don't do music for people to want to be a singer, actor, or dancer. I do it because I love it and I want to show others you can accomplish goals.

Trevor Jackson

I like a girl who can be a girl but also ready to play basketball.

Trevor Jackson

I think purpose is the most important thing because once you understand that, everything else becomes easy.

Trevor Jackson

It's weird because if I'm not doing anything, I get antsy. I feel like I always have to be doing something.

Trevor Jackson

If I write a song, I'm gonna end up singing it. If I sing it, I gotta dance to it.
