In an odd way, Donald Trump and maybe Brexit is gonna be great for inspiring a new wave of socially conscious political music.

I feel like once the song is done, you put it out there and if people want to do bizarre remixes, if people want to make strange videos, great. You know, like chaos theory applied to the music business.

I found it incredibly disheartening that in the late '90s, suddenly pop culture became even more misogynistic and more homophobic, and so I criticized Eminem for having lyrics that were egregiously homophobic and egregiously misogynistic.

I don't put a lot of pressure on myself when I'm writing. It feels like if I come up with something good, or I come up with something bad, I'm not too worried.

The young have to kill the old. The young, if they want to achieve their own platform, have to diminish the reputations of the ones that have gone before. That's how life works.

As far as I'm concerned, the whole point of making music is to get it heard by as many people as possible.

Though in many of its aspects this visible world seems formed in love, the invisible spheres were formed in fright.
