The singer released his debut solo single "Strip That Down" on Friday and says his 33-year-old girlfriend - with whom he has two-month-old son Bear - gave him her honest and brutal opinion on the track before he shared it with the world, reported Contactmusic.
"For the first part, I can't show her anything. If I show her something that's half finished, she'll be like 'no I don't like it'.
"She's open and honest and brutal. There's a song I wrote on the album that she knows I've written, she's like 'no I hate it. It's crap'. I'd rather she'd be honest. I wouldn't want her to feed me any nonsense," the 23-year-old singer says.
