I'm Trying To Be Me And Embrace

Hip-hop And R&b Are Especially Fertile Bases Of Collaboration. It Always Makes Good Records And Good Music.

I Listen To All Those Kinds Of Music, From Classic Soul To Hip-hop To Brazilian Music To, You Know, Jazz To Indie To Alternative. So Whatever. I Listen To All If It. Classic Rock And Classic Pop, All Of That.

The Issue I Focus On The Most Is Extreme Poverty. I Think It's Kind Of Out Of Sight Out Of Mind. I Wish There Would Be More Stories About That To Connect People To What's Happening. To Personalize It, To Make It Real To People, To Inspire Them To Action.

I Don't Really Marinate In Anybody's Album Because I Don't Really Want To Sound Like Anybody Else When I Put My Album Out. So I'd Rather Not Even Be Tempted To Listen To A Bunch Of Other Stuff With Any Degree Of Emersion In It, Cause I Just Don't Want To Sound Like Anything Else, So I Kinda Focus On My Own Music.

In Terms Of The Technology I Use The Most, It's Probably A Tie Between My Blackberry And My Macbook Pro Laptop. That's How I Communicate With The Rest Of The World And How I Handle All The Business I Have To Handle.
