I love to beatbox and have been doing it before I even knew what it was.

I like boxes because of the secrets they hide.

For people who love Tribe, I'm the defector. They say, 'You should get back with Ali to do the beats.' But a lot of people don't realize I did all the music in Tribe. In the first three albums, I did all the beats!

I like to box. It's a great release.

I don't like being put in a box. I just make music, you know?

I made my first song when I was 9 years old. Just beating on garbage cans, having people beat box.

Even for the people in the business who are real music lovers it's really about putting things in the right boxes, and my style doesn't fit into a box.

I've never wanted to be put into a box, not musically.

There's an open door now more than ever to be making any type of beats that you want.

I enjoy working with complicated equipment. A lot of my things started just with a rhythm box, but I feed it through so many things that what comes out sounds very complex and rich.
