When I Notice That All The Beats

I Think A Lot Of Studios Today Are Run By Women, And We Are Entering A Time When A Lot Of Women Have Evolved In Second City And Upright Citizens Brigade And Wanted To Become Writers And Comedians.

I Don't Want To Be Ordinary. I'm Willing To Do The Work. I'm Willing To Suffer The Indignities Of Comedy Because I Want To Be Great. I Don't Want To Just Be Good. I Want To Be Great.

My Grandfather Was Bob Shad, One Of Those Legendary Jazz And Blues Producers - He Worked With Charlie Parker And Dinah Washington, And He Produced Janis Joplin's Album [1967's Big Brother & The Holding Company]. He Always Owned Small Labels As Well - He Had A Label Called Mainstream Records In The 70s.

It Was Always The Most Fun Thing In The World To Think Of A Joke Area And Talk About It With Someone Like Jim Carrey, And Then He Would Get On Stage Fearlessly And Tear The House Down. That's Something I Always Enjoyed. It Also Allowed Me To Not Be Terrified.

When I Notice That All The Beats Sound Exactly The Same, It Starts To Wear On Me.
