People Aren't Hearing All The Music.

Before Now, I've Always Taken My Mixes Out To The Car And Listened To Them In The Parking Lot. I Still Do That, But More So Now I'm Listening To It On The Beat Box, And I Think People Should Give It At Least A Listen And Check It Out And See What It Is.

I've Looked At Pictures That My Mom Has Of Me, From When I Was Four Years Old At The Turntable. I'm There, Reaching Up To Play The Records. I Feel Like I Was Bred To Do What I Do. I've Been Into Music, And Listening To Music And Critiquing It, My Whole Life.

Children Listen, I'm Trying To Tell You Something Good, Don't Get Caught Up In The Hood.

When I Think Of The Future, I Think A Lot Of Quincy Jones And How He Is An Inspiration. Look At The Quality Of His Work Over So Many Years. He Didn't Even Make His Best Record, 'thriller,' Until He Was 50. That Gives Me Something To Look Forward To. Nothing Pulls You Back Into The Studio More Than The Belief That Your Best Record Is Still Ahead.

Engineering And Mixing Are Absolutely Key. Once A Song Is Done, For Me Personally, It's Usually Two Or Three Days To Get The Mix Down.
