If I Ran Into A 19-year-old Version

Two Records Put Me Over The Top With Hip-hop. One Of Them Was 'planet Rock,' And The Other Had No Lyrics - It Was Called 'numbers,' From A Group Called Kraftwerk. Every Kid In The 'hood In New York And New Jersey Was Popping, Locking, And Breaking To That Record. It Was The Hottest Track On The Street At The Time.

Always Follow Your Own Path.

So Often, You Don't Get That Opportunity. You Only Go Over Everything Once And, The Next Thing You Know, You're On Set.

I Am Used To Being On Tours With People Who Are Fantastic Performers And I Respect Them And I Love Their Music. But The Bottom Line Is They Got The Vision For What We Are Trying To Do.

Hip-hop Definitely Taught Me A Lot. Having To Create Your Own Identity And Become Known And Respected In A Male-dominated Field - It Requires Some Guts. There Are Times You Have To Be Strong, And Times When You Have To Stand Alone For What You Believe In.
