I think the most exciting thing is that you expect people our age to know the music, but actually a lot of kids know the music, and if anything is left, we have left really good music, and that’s the important part, not the mop-tops or whatever.
Somebody told me once it takes an Americana song five minutes to say what a country song says in three – so I try to write country songs. But really, all good music is just soul music.
I’m a fan of FKA Twigs, The Weeknd. I love that kind of ambient R&B. I feel like it’s just another soldier in the war to blur the lines and make things to where it’s good music and bad music.
Encourage good music and art and literature in your homes. Homes that have a spirit of refinement and beauty will bless the lives of your children forever.
Before hip-hop existed, we were listening to soul songs from the ’70s. I grew up with Motown, Elton John, and the Beatles. To me, that’s good music.
It’s more important for me to have a good record with good music and be part of a movie that’s good and where the music is used in a really great way. That’s the important thing. The other stuff you want to say about it, I don’t care.
You look at Michael McDonald and people like that; I think they just tried to write music that was true to themselves. That’s our bottom line. Whatever people view us as, I think as long as we try to create good music that will win out in the end.
What I like about Americans is if it’s good music, that’s the only thing that matters.
Always focus on the music first. That’s the big thing. Staying true to making good music and not sacrificing that for anything.
So much good music has been looked over because of preconceived notions of genre.
I like to watch ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ when I’d doing cardio. But, sometimes I do need good music to get me moving. I like high energy songs by artists like Justin Timberlake and Rihanna.
It has been a contented journey, as I made it without a filmi background tag, but at the same time, a lot remains to be done because there is much good music in me.
I really think there are two genres of music: good music and bad music. And I’m just trying to be on the side of making good music.
It’s an amazing experience to perform in Nagpur! Music aficionados here appreciate good music and shower their love magnanimously on artistes.
We want to get this good music to as many people as possible because I think it heals, it soothes, I think music is incredibly important, especially in today’s chaos.
I’m not interested in anything besides making some good music, helping some artists, being an executive. I’m pretty happy with that.
All I can do is make good music and make it for the fans, not for anybody else.
I believe good music heals souls.
I mean regardless of what kind of success we have, this is one of the most gratifying things in the world – to work with your friends, and make good music, by our standards.
