I had different bands. I played with the Acoustic Warriors for the most part, without girl singers. It was the same kind of sound, acoustic guitar, bass, with violin and sometimes accordion, and the guys would sing, that kind of thing.

When I was on 'Complete Savages,' the cast sometimes found themselves running from a mob of girls. There is nothing quite like that.

Female influence came from my grandmother and my aunt. They would sing Corsican love songs while cleaning the house and dress all in black and say melodramatic things like: 'I want to die.'

A lot of big whoever producers, they come with a song and they say, 'Sing this,' and I'm not that girl.

Women are a key part of the sound of the groups that accompany male singers like Kirk Franklin, Israel Houghton, and myself.

Why is it that the hot chicks never can sing?

Klaus from the Teddybears, Bloodshy and Avant and Mike Snow, they've done lots of Britney Spears production. They went backwards from production to being in a band, which might be cool. I might do that, too, one day.

We used to have a main female vocalist. But she had a baby. Now we do the singing ourselves.

The way I see it, all the popular singers are strippers.
