It's important for a young black kid to see a Mexican hero, just to know that we're all equal.

When people score films, the job is to be visual. When people make music, it's about evoking feeling. It's great when you get both feelings and being out of their head.

I try to make classics. I don't try to make things that aren't good. It's always a pleasure to see that people care about the kind of music I'm making.

The easy answer is to say that it's a part for black people to see black heroes, but to me it's important to young Mexican kids to see a black hero.

To me, when something is classic, whether it came out today or thirty years ago, it falls all in the same pot.

What really, really inspires me is that you don't see many black superheroes on television.

When you get above the line, you're above the line. So my thing is I just want to make music where I am always above that line.
