I Was Not Reluctant To Become A

I'm A Nut For Bach As A Composer.

Since I Was Three I've Been Playing The Piano. I've Been Onstage. My Mother Is An Evangelist And I Used To Play The Piano At Her Revival Meetings.

I Believe The Time Will Come When The Whole Definition Of Pop Music Will Change. It Will Get To The Point Where A Song Will Not Be A Good Song Until It Has A High Level Of Creativity In Writing And Performance. In Other Words, In Order To Be Popular, Songs Will Have To Meet These High Standards.

Music Is A Gift And A Burden I've Had Since I Can Remember Who I Was.

It's A Good Time For Black People To Be Alive.
