But I did go to music really early on, even when I was 4 or 5, I was responding to music probably in ways other kids were not.

The way I feel about music is that there is no right and wrong. Only true and false.

I always knew I'd be in music in some sort of capacity. I didn't know if I'd be successful at it, but I knew I'd be doing something in it. Maybe get a job in a record store. Maybe even play in a band. I never got into this to be a star.

I like to make music, I like rap music. Even if I'm white, I support that music. If I want to support it or any other white kid wants to support it more power to them.

That's what I love from metal, and that's what I love from hip-hop. That's what I love from any music that's hard, that's got an edge to it-The attitude in it.

I've never believed that pop music is escapist trash. There's always a darkness in it, even amidst great pop music.

I always believed in the music we did and that's why it was uncompromising.

I love 70's music.

Music is what our feelings sound like.

Also, because people like to multitask, in a way if you've got a bit of music on in the background and the lyrical content is making you want to listen to it, then that would probably put you off the texting you wanted to do. I think people like things that just make that right kind of noise, but leave your brain free to do something else.
