- Sampling: The chorus of "Whatcha Say" samples from Imogen Heap's "Hide and Seek".
- Self-Titled Album: His debut album from 2010.
- Sexophone: "Talk Dirty" features this, even though the girls in the video are clearly playing trumpets.

I got lipstick stamps on my passport
I think I need a new one
