I think in the old music, everything was so competitive. It was all about - very selfish in a lot of ways. The label sort of capitalized on that desperation and that competition. In the new music landscape, with is the democratization of the internet and music in general, I think it can be a lot more collaborative. People, instead of competing, they can actually support each other, in music.

Ethical systems and practices need to look good. They have to be desirable, well-designed and work well.

Everything I do, it's all about making every moment a quality, meaningful moment.

I'm one with New York, and New York is one with me. I grew up there; there's no escaping it. We're like Siamese twins, if you separate us, I'll die.

You can't expect people to do the right thing or else they will go to hell. We are already in hell!

I am happy to have success in the entertainment biz, but the root of my happiness comes from my neighborhood, NYC.

There's never a better way of living than just improving our quality of life.
