I didn't want to go out and change anything. I just wanted to make the music that was part of my background, which was rock and blues and hip-hop.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I feel like I changed hip-hop.
I always wanted to get into rock music so I could cover up my real personality, change my voice, and create a false self to hide behind.
I was working a corporate job, but I really wanted to do music.
It's been a transformative period and I really wanted to make music from what I've experienced.
I mix up all styles on my albums because that is what music is about now.
I wanted to give people a taste of my own music through the sound and style of my covers.
I kind of always wanted my own music to just sound like, like me, I suppose, like if I was music it would be the music I make, I think.
I don't live in the past or focus on making new songs sound like my old stuff; it would be stupid, and I don't think anyone would like it.
I'm a producer first, and I know music, so I can jump on any song, whether it's pop or urban, without changing me. Whatever I do, I'm gonna make it classic.
Music has to change. I don't want to stay the same forever.
