Brandon Adams

I spent most of my young life in the business and missed out on school events. I needed to be a young person and do what I wanted to do.

I can sing; I can hold a tune.

I grew up in Inglewood, L.A., and South Central. I was always humbled by my situation. I would go on set and come home to my neighborhood and my block to my friends, and it would be a whole other story.

Aim higher. Stay focused.

I was everybody's little boyfriend when I was younger. It's all good. It's just love, you know. I'll take the love. Give it to me.

It's not the part of being a celebrity that's so attractive to me. It's being recognized for your accomplishments and what you've done... becoming closer to what you want to achieve in life.
