A lot of people, musically anyway, have realized that they can do it, and there's an audience for it at least in their own country, and often thought a lot of countries have a diaspora that breaks out all over the place, so they have a pretty wide audience.

It seems almost backwards to me that my music seems the more emotional outlet, and the art stuff seems more about ideas.

Why not invest in the future of music, instead of building fortresses to preserve its past?

Having unlimited choices can paralyze you creatively.

I've never had writer's block.

Often I don't know what the song means until it's finished. Sometimes months later. I don't think that's bad. It implies that I don't know what I'm doing but-I think if you're able to follow your instincts, then that's knowing what you're doing.

Everything's intentional. It's just filling in the dots.
