What's wrong with hip-hop is the system that controls the definition of it. There needs to be more balance on the airwaves.

I remember back in the day when Chuck D called hip-hop the "black people's CNN." Well now, hip-hop is more like Fox News. It's biased, and highly suspect.

Hip-hop is still cool at a party. But to me, hip-hop has never been strictly a party; it is also there to elevate consciousness.

I'm somewhat of an empath, I would say. I relate easily to ideas and stories, books, films, music. I'm moved by all of these things. Art in general. But not just art, you know?

I'm very excited about the resurgence of vinyl which seems to parallel a growing interest in live performance.

Niggy Tardust' is the voice of a generation, a generation that does not define itself simply by what it's born into.

Art itself is underserved when we don't realize the power of it.
