My connection with Basquiat was really in Los Angeles, which really was a whole different world to what he was experiencing in New York.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When Basquiat was hanging out with Madonna and Fab Five Freddy, and all those worlds were colliding, people have to realize hip-hop and the arts were like this 'cause we both were outcasts: we wasn't allowed inside the galleries or inside Yankee Stadium. We were writing in the street and making music.
