“Back in the days, when people didn’t have their own home studios, they had to get songs done that day. There was a certain magic in that ‘hurry up and get it done’ kind of thing.”

“I come from a hip-hop background so, all music can be looped. Anything! I could be in the supermarket and hear a song. I would think to myself, ‘Man! If I can just repeat that part. It only happens once on that song.’ That’s really a hip-hop kind of thing, using someone else’s music is hip-hop. It’s the only kind of music that does that. That’s the one cool thing that it held down, samples. Beats! This is what pretty much led to our culture of the Internet, what’s instant vintage. That whole thing is what is rooted in hip-hop sampling, simultaneously creating something new. No other music does that.”

“I was talking to some dude in Chicago. He was, what I like to call, a neo-hippie in disguise... Anyway, the neo-hippie guy asked me, ‘Aren’t you a Christian emcee?’ I knew that he was doing it in the cloud of clowning. Yeah, I’m a Christian dude. I came from that scene as well as this scene. I came up doing both. He said, ‘I don’t think music should be a way to talk about politics or religion.’ I replied, ‘Can you name one great band that didn’t?’ Look at U2, Rage Against The Machine, Public Enemy or The Beastie Boys. Every single band did! Probably the only ones who did not do that would be The Beach Boys.”
