Songs Aren't Owned By Anyone.

It's Hard To Be Spontaneous When You Have 40 People In Your Crew, And You're Playing To 16,000 People Every Night, And There's Giant Lighting Rigs, It's Hard To Change Direction On A Dime.

When I Learned To Play Music, I Was Listening To Blues Music. And All The Blues Music I Liked Was Super Simple And Stripped Down. And Then All The Hip Hop I Liked Was Super Simple And Stripped Down And We Always Heard That Connection.

I Feel Like I Live In My Own Little World, To Be Honest. I Mean, I Love My Record, But I Don't Feel Tied To It. I Sort Of Created My Own Little Universe In The Studio, And That's Why All Of Those Musicians Who Made A Living In The Nashville Music Scene Loved Coming Over To My Place So Much.

Hip Hop Is The New Rock N' Roll, You Know What I Mean? And Anybody Who Doesn't Think That Is Just Sort Of Living In The Past. It's All Just American Music, Really, When You Get Right Down To It.

My Mum's Family Would All Get Together, With Guitars, Harmonica, Mandolins And Upright Bass And Play Old Blues And Folk Songs. That Was Normal To Me.
