Everybody's slow right now, there's nothing happening musically, everybody's all on cable television and being manipulated by all the television right now, what's on cable telling people what to listen to and stuff.

You have girls that sing about guys ain't paying their bills and men are this and men are that and I write about women who want to go out for free, they don't want to pay for the dinner, they try to get over, they wanna leave.

I mean the world is a place where it feels like a woman has to go out everywhere in society, you have to buy her and cook her a meal and stuff.

But still at that particular level of commercialism I listen to those projects I still hear some stagnation in a lot of the stuff.

I had BEEN making futuristic records way before a lot of the groups that came out, but now everybody is running to make their albums sound new, but it sounds too made up.

As I get older, I 've shied away from a lot of convention. I've just been making my records.

I didn't think of rap with that type of south feel and that look and the hay and all that.
