My taste in music originates from my culture and heritage, and from traveling the world and listening to all kinds of fun sounds and bits.
The opportunity and the concept of merging music culture with actual boxing is exciting. It's bringing a younger demographic to the sport.
The gift of song is just like... I think music is one of those true things in this world that is universal.
I associate heavy metal with fantasy because of the tremendous power that the music delivers.
I'm proud of my roots. There are not many Asians in the music industry so it's important for me to tell people where I'm from.
Drugs have nothing to do with the creation of music. In fact, they are dumb and self indulgent. Kind of like sucking your thumb!

My sisters and I like a lot of different styles of music, but we're inspired by real artists like Beyonce and Adele.

The first choral music I remember hearing was Handel's 'Messiah' when the Mormon Tabernacle Choir broadcast it over the radio.
On the other hand, what I like my music to do to me is awaken the ghosts inside of me. Not the demons, you understand, but the ghosts.
With music, you often don't have to translate it. It just affects you, and you don't know why.
What's completely insane to me is that people would consider music that's simple to be dumbed-down. Couldn't simplicity be a deliberate, smart choice?
