You can't roll a joint on an iPod, buy vinyl.

I just had it with the corporate money, money, money label thing.

I was singing before I could talk.

Music should be poor. Music should be with out air conditioning. That's just the way it is.

I never sing a song more than twice because my fear of waning excitement for a piece is part of my troubles. I so rely on vibe, energy and emotions that the technical part occurs to me last.

I feel like records are moments in time, a modern moment that feels right then and it found its way to us then, that minute. We can all try and repeat records we have made that had success, but it's not possible.

I can't tell you how freeing it is to have my own label. For the first time in my career, I have total control.
