I worked in a barbershop. I used to make the waves in the brother's hair, you know? Like, Nat King Cole, Sugar Ray Robinson.

The desired effect is what you get when you improve your interplanetary funksmanship.

The bigger the headache, the bigger the pill.

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

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.

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

I'm always surprised that I'm still around funk and that people are still into it.
