Salsa, classic rock, soul music, jazz... all of that was a part of my education in making hip-hop 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.

I like a lot of old-school R&B, soul, and classic rock.

I love classic rock, rock and roll, that's the top notch. I love soul - bluesy music as well.

I think of hip hop as a mass media, radio, MTV thing. It’s been extremely relevant over the last 10 years and rock music is just not anymore—-a tear rolls down my cheek as I say that.

I like jazz, rock n' roll, some hip hop - I can't think of any music I don't like.
