“I listen to Lil Wayne a lot while I paint, a lot of Coltrane, I listen to shit tons of music while I paint. It’s ridiculous, the amount of music I listen to, from all worlds. Always discovering, and I still listen to the music I loved when I was growing up. I played music all day yesterday. I played a DJ set. I’ve got two turntables and a mixer system in my house. It’s a part of it. Honestly, I work hard but you gotta have soul, baby. [These days,] a lot of people are getting credit for a lot of work that’s soulless. A lot of red beans being cooked out there with no seasoning in it. Beaucoup rice. No seasoning. Who am I to tell them not to enjoy it if that’s their thing? If they dig it, cool but I’m in the corner eating good ass beans that I’ve cooked. That’s what I’m rocking.”
