Artists don't come much cooler and well rounded than Lady Gaga. Love and respect.

Bands always call me when they are in need of a boost and I come in and put them back on top.

In today's world, I probably would like to work with someone like Gaga.

I would play hooky from school and spend all day in the movie theaters. Consequently, I learned satire in all its subtle forms.

Trust me, the only real way to understand 'Chic' is in highfalutin terms. Our chord progressions were based on European modal melodies. I made those early 'Chic' records to impress my jazz friends.

What do great artists do when you see a world around you that's in turmoil? Some of the best artists make you feel good (hah), they look to the future.

Any real record person knows that the number one most powerful marketing tool when it comes to music is repetition.
