Sydney is rather like an arrogant lover. When it rains it can deny you its love and you can find it hard to relate to. It's not a place that's built to be rainy or cold. But when the sun comes out, it bats its eyelids, it's glamorous, beautiful, attractive, smart, and it's very hard to get away from its magnetic pull.

A life lived in fear is a life half lived.

Having grown up far, far away in a small country town in Australia, I was only slightly aware of hip-hop.

I grew up around jazz. I love jazz.

Fitzgerald coined the phrase the 'Jazz Age,' and now we're living in the Hip-Hop Age.

Everything I make starts very personally.

Look, I had a passion for comic books growing up.
