Music moves society more than most people realize. In my opinion, it's a soft manipulator of influence and change.

There's so many people that follow the trend, and then it gets to a point where it gets a little stale. So, in music; I mean, whoever's the new trendsetter, that's who people follow.

I think the problem starts with the general appreciation of the music in the larger society.

Music is always a commentary on society.

I think music influences fashion and has done so for generations.

You can say what you think music is, but the only way it really is, is how people experience it.

Music is a tool that brings people together.

When I was a kid growing up in the '60s, music was an outlet for enlightenment, frustration, rebellion. It was more about individualism. Today it's just like a big business.

At the end of the day, every decision I make about my music is about creating a collective.

But I do think that we approach music, in of itself, with a religious attitude.
