Do you know, if I go to a Jewish school, them kids are quiet. If I go to a white school, them kids quiet. If I go to a Latino school, they quiet. The only kids that disrespect me is black kids. That’s it – my own are the only ones that disrespect me.

Many times, people have come up to me after singing some songs, and they’d say, ‘Richie, do you know what you did?’ And I’d say, ‘What?’ And they’d go, ‘I wrote these songs down for you to sing, and you sang them all in a row.’ But that’s the kind of communication that happens, you know.

I suppose a certain degree of adulthood has entered my life. Aiming for Broadway, I can’t think that way any more. Of course, Broadway will always be important. But it’s not the focus of everything that you do. You know, I’m very happy I was born when I was, so I got there in time. When it was time to get there.

There are people that have that confidence, who march into VIP areas. I assume I won’t get in. I don’t say, ‘Do you know who I am?’, but sometimes I’m with someone who says it for you. Then, I pretend to be all, ‘Oh, please don’t shame me!’.
Chris Lowe

I didn’t want to use my father’s name. I don’t think I will ever want to use his influence… Never have I gone around asking people, ‘Do you know who I am…’ Even if it’s to cut a line at the airport.
