When the Fugees were big, we made a whole lot of money, and what happened was that I saved my money and never spent it.

I decided to do what I do when I was 2 years old. At 2 years old, you know, I heard the sound of a drum playing in the village, and I found my own drum and just picked it up and started playing, the worst song ever written by Wyclef Jean.But it actually started a vibe.

A lot of my music is very reggae- driven. Half of my life Bob Marley was all I listened to.

My dad was in the hood, he was a minister, and he would always put churches in the ghetto.

Ever since I was a little kid, there used to be the Carnival that used to pass.

I don't see no more Billie Holidays, no more Marvin Gayes, no more Smokey Robinsons. I don't even see no more Nirvanas.

When you find the talent, it's always raw, and when you put the talent in the formula, you get the Knocks.
