The hitmaker appeared via live feed from Miami and told the audience that he's enjoying getting back to his craft: "Right now, I’m loving making music again.”

He also opened up about having a signature sound and explained that he's trying to explore his own talents without borrowing influences from others: "I use different rhythms. My brain moves faster than my body. I have all these concepts in my head that I’m constantly hearing; I hear rhythm in [people] talking. My mom told me that nobody can copy what God gave you."

When asked to describe the creative synergy between himself and Justin Timberlake, he added: "We both honestly love music: we don’t do it for the money but to better ourselves. It’s something you’ve got to see; I can’t describe it. You just know it’s crazy when we get in the studio. He gives me power and I give him power. It’s almost like going to therapy -- getting stuff out to renew yourself."
