When I would play pop music at underground shows, it was offensive to some people. I wasn't doing it to piss people off: I just didn't believe in those strong divisions that you're supposed to listen to this or that.

I always like the people who keep moving forward, but kind of stay in their own lane.

It's rare when I feel like I can extract a lyrical message out of combining two things together.

I'm interested in branching out and seeing where my music goes.

When people come to my shows they know there is a distinct beginning and end. It's difficult for me to play for much more than an hour, so people kind of come out and treat it like a rock show. They're fiending and ready to dance.

With rap music, there are billions and billions of samples that are uncleared that people have never been bothered about on an underground level.

Sharing information, art, music, and everything on the internet now has become a part of everyone's lives.
