You're talking to someone who really understands rock music.
I grew up doing theater and music, and in fact, I spent more time doing theater, and I'd do music when I could.
When I'm writing music, I'm not playing a character. I'm not Alice Cooper or Gene Simmons or someone like that, who has acknowledged that they are writing music for a character.
I think, as far as branching out with acting, it would take something really right on the mark to distract me from music, because music is everything to me.
The music that I wrote and recorded is music that I really enjoy listening to. It's just dumb luck that a lot of other people do, too.
Dre was one of my heros in the music industry. If he's not down for his homeboys, I don't wanna be a part of him or around him.

The commonest and cheapest sounds, as the barking of a dog, produce the same effect on fresh and healthy ears that the rarest music does. It depends on your appetite for sound. Just as a crust is sweeter to a healthy appetite than confectionery to a ...
I like music a lot.
We have a lot of questions, and we want to understand. Music helps with that . Music helps with everything.
I will survive, jackoffs. Just watch me.
The flower that does not smile at the branches withers.
We do this for the art, not the adulation. I'd rather our music get liked and we get ignored. I don't want to be adored for anything other than the music.
Jazz vision for me is seeing my art in musical term. It offers me an visual expressions in an ever-changing musical palette.
