I've always tried to insert consciousness and spirituality in my records, interpreting the writings of all cultures and religions and how they apply to life in modern times.
The young kids out there doing their thing, I can't knock them.
As a young artist, especially in rap and at that time that I came out, originality was big.
I got a lot of vinyl, a lot of music in general in the house.
As I grew up, a lot of the music was made to uplift the spirit.
I'm a fan of hip-hop as well. I like everybody who keeps the game on their toes and keep it pushing.
