Even when I was a hip-hop DJ I always kept it classy. The motto is always 'flashy but classy.' You've got to be original and stand out from the crowd and take some chances. But you've always got to keep it classy.

I just want to have fun and party with everyone around the world. That's the only rule, to have fun.

I'm trying to just drop so much music that people cannot ignore it.

I think that Detroiters are some of the most resilient people in the world.

I make soul music for hip-hop heads. It's music I'd want to sample if I were a rapper.

I love doing things that people don't expect.

I was a hip-hop head. When I really found my own lane in music, it was hip-hop. I wanted to make hip-hop music. And I did, I made a lot of hip-hop music.
