bits coming favorite great hear house kid latin mixed music open pop reggae street summer total walk windows
What I do is kind of a rock, rap, reggae, house, Latin and pop all mixed in one great kind of cauldron, ... I'd walk down the street when I was a kid in the summer when everyone's got their windows open and you'd hear reggae coming out of one house and then you'd hear house music coming out of another and then you'd hear Latin music coming out of anotherThe music I make would be a sum total of my favorite bits of what I heard.
