My dad's music was a great inspiration to me.

Pops, he was a singer's singer. I loved to hear my father sing. He just was so laid-back and cool. I always wished I could sing like Pops.

My dad is my biggest influence on me as a musician, even though he's not a musician.

My family was very supportive of whatever I wanted because my grandfather was an opera singer. My dad's dad. So my dad has an appreciation for the arts, and he let me choose my own path.

My dad is my biggest source of inspiration. He's a lawyer, and when he'd get home, we always sat down and listened to music.

I have to say I have an incredible musical education because of my father.

If you met my dad, I think a lot of things would be put to rest. Because my pops is a pretty silly guy. But, Coldcut, they're based in the U.K. I'm a big fan of jazz music, so American music has had a big influence on what I listen to.

My dad always, he helped me by not helping me. He always said, being a producer, it was all about conviction.

There was nothing more I wanted to do than to see my dad react well to my music. I still do. I send him my demos all the time.

My family always helped me. I had people around me who always pushed me to be the best: my dad, my mum. My dad used to play and coach as well. But I wasn't born with shiny things.
