You can rebel against everything adults say. When I want to find out what the new music is, I find out what parents hate.

I pick up on styles, way before they get popular, pretty much before young kids do. I see 'em coming.

Disco is funky when you take one record at a time. It's just that they narrowed it down to one beat to try to corner the market on a particular music. And when you do that with rhythm - talk about something that will get on your nerves. Try to make love with one stroke. Somebody will tell you to fax it in.

I think a lot of people really have religious overtones of having come from somewhere. I mean, even the whole concept of religion is kind of alien.

Style is whatever you want to do, if you can do it with confidence.

When I hear music that parents hate, or older musicians hate, I know that's the new music. When I hear older people saying, 'I hate Rap or Techno' I rush to it.

If you got a booty, you're going to dance to disco, funk, you know, whatever's going on. Funk is going to be involved in it.
