People are buying these things like they're going out of style.

The parents love this. They think this is the greatest thing that has ever happened.

I didn't make two of anything. The whole shop is the Wizard of Oz.

Fashion and style is just that. Fashion and style. It's not brain surgery.

I don't believe in changing my style because something's a trend, ... People are mislead: They think because it's a trend, they should do it. And it's not going to work.

I'd call it an organic hip-hop style, musically. Back in the late '80s and early '90s, people sampled a lot, and because of that these records had a feel. They weren't recorded in a computer with a click track. . . . When I was approaching this record, what I wanted to do was try and get back to that, but I write music, I play music, so I wanted to write every note, record every note and play every note, and get that kind of hand-played feel.
