It's hard to really articulate what the parameters are that make one song parody-able and another song not, but if I can come up with a good enough idea for it, I go for it, and if not, then I have to move on.

My personal taste doesn't enter into it a lot when I make my decisions as to what to parody.

You still have Top 40 radio now, but it's 40 different stations. There aren't many hits that everybody knows, and there aren't many real superstars.

I'm free to do what I please, I'm probably not going to do albums. Just because I think releasing tracks as singles is a better way for me to stay topical.

My process for the parodies is that I get an idea for a song and then get approval from the artist and then go in and record it and probably try to get it out as soon as possible.

A lot of rap songs don't usually have a lot of melody per se.

One of the hardest things I've had to deal with in my career is keeping my material topical even though I only release albums every three or four years.
