I like performers who I know are for real. You can tell, man, there's an intensity about their stuff. You can tell right away they're real people, ya know?
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Honestly, I just love great performers and people who love what they do.
I relate to the audiences and they know me. It's pretty real.
When you are real in your music, people know it and they feel your authenticity.
People like the shows I do. I want to be real, to have fun, even when I dance on stage... it's a buzz.
I believe a great performer is someone who sounds just as great live as they do in the studio and vice versa. They should know how to work the stage.
I love artists. I find them fascinating. To me, there really is a genuine magic in what they do.
I don't like artists who are actors. I like artists, but I don't believe in that.
I love to work with performers that are very different to me.
More and more, I enjoy hearing people who are good at their instruments and who've found a distinctive voice. In death metal, a lot of guys are Eddie Van Halen disciples, but they take his style to really expressionistic places. It's a real pleasure for me to hear people pushing their craft.
If you wanna be famous, then it's okay if the music is fake, because fame isn't real.
