Singer Nick Jonas, who released his new album named after him, says he takes his inspiration from musicians like Stevie Wonder and Prince.

"I feel like for me, I was inspired by people like Stevie Wonder, Prince and more modern stuff like The Weekend and James Blake and that vibe. A lot of that is sexy," femalefirst,co.uk quoted Jonas as saying.

Talking about his album, released Nov 10, he said that its the listener's choice about which song they wish to listen to from the album.

"I think it's up to the audience because everybody has a certain preference. Maybe a song called 'Push,' and this other one called 'Santa Barbara' has nice vibes and a song called 'Closer' that I did with Mike Posner. Those are a few and then they can decide what they want from there," he added.
