Blaxploitation films were black films targeting black people. They were films made to appeal to a culture in a way that was supposed to be unfiltered.

I think that being a film composer, someone that gets it and actually applies the music, it allows you to open up a spectrum of feeling. You're now allowed to approach the music from an audio visual perspective.

I don't have any computers in my studio, it's all analog tape. All analog tape, all old equipment, I mean my mics are like from the 60's and early 70's, everything in there is old.

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.

It's important to the world to see superheroes that are spread across our demographic.

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.

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