I never had any plans to become a producer when I was a kid. I wanted to be a DJ, like most other kids at the time. Then my mum bought me a Casio keyboard and I started to sample sounds that I liked.

I work out all the time. I love it.

Good production is like a beautiful marriage. It makes a happy home.

Everyone wants to work with the big new producer or the hot new singer. The key is to find them before they're hot.

I'm weird, I do crazy things, it's not like the average norm.

People do not respect music anymore... They go by what's hot... If you're hot, you deserve 4 or 5 Grammys... Madonna is a genius and she only has 2 or 3 Grammys... What is that about?

I do music for the fans. I want to lift fans up.
