Funk is the absence of any and everything you can think of, but the very essence of all that is. And saying that, I'm saying funk is anything that we create in our minds that we want to do, what we want to be, but we don't have the resources.

I'm always surprised that I'm still around funk and that people are still into it.

If it tastes really good, and it's funky, it's funkalicous. If the guy making it is funky, he's funkintacious.

I've always seen myself as sort of this funky, eclectic artist.

Between Prince and my dad's fusion-jazz records, I didn't have a choice in being funky.

I love funky styles. Not preppy or rock, just funky!

I've always gravitated towards the beats, obviously. And when I was growing up, I always loved funk music or even - dare I say it - disco.

I'm trying to change the root of funk, trying to make it more progressive, more melodic and more lyrically structured.
