I just look up to anyone who made music back then because you really had to be a musician. There were no samples or drum machines. Those people back in the day paved the way for people like me.

The only reason I started using samples was because people talked about me not sounding like Kanye or The Heatmakers.

Everybody is looking for a hit single but what the artists really need is an executive producer to help put better albums out.

I want to sell tracks but at the same time I want to stay true to the music I like. This is why I love the underground scene because they can stay true to what they want to do.

I have no problem with thinking small. Sometimes you have to think small first in order to think big.

Albums aren't even selling anymore and there's a reason for that. Record companies are just signing single and ring tone deals and it doesn't seem like they're focusing on albums.

My music should evoke a feeling; whether it's a feeling in your stomach, goosebumps, whatever. When you don't get a feeling then there's a problem.
