What singing means to me, I never did consider myself a singer, I just let people watch me feel music and how it comes through me. I've worked on it and practiced a lot. I mean, music, I dance to it, and singing is just one way of getting it out of me.

What draws me to a project is how sympathetic I am toward it, so that I can relax into it and give up myself.

I don't have one song that sounds like another one in my entire catalog.

I'm not satisfied with the explanations I get from tv or from school.

I'm only in competition with my last level. It don't have nothing to do with music or anything. And the last level is hard competition, the last place you were.

My hair is an aesthetic choice… At the same time, how you wear your hair is a political statement as well.

Different periods, different cultures - it's just the way my mind works. My music is that way as well. There's a foundation but the inspiration comes from everywhere. I've been influenced by so many things.
