song taco-bell bells
Someone recently played me 'Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell' by Das Racist. That should be my theme song.
musician
I did everything I could to not be a musician
love teenager prodigies
I only discovered electronic music as a teenager and I still love the Prodigy and Massive Attack.
dad thinking people
When my dad toured in '91, I think my first gig properly was the Tokyo Dome, 50,000 people indoors. That was pretty scary. I was 12, or 13.
Everyone's seen the Beatles.
fans huge
I'm a huge Wu-Tang fan.
names use term
I don't ever use my name for anything in terms of getting the music heard.
want sometimes made
I sometimes listen to music I made and find it to be something I wouldn't want to buy from a store, if there was a store. When it's like that, you have to make what you want to hear.
dad play age
I did Albert Hall, I got to play the Hall of Fame with Prince. So I've done that kind of stuff for ages. It wasn't until after we finished working on Brainwash, my dad's album after he died, then it was like 'That phase is over in my life now, now we can get on with our music, with our band.
people weird-people
Being in L.A. is great because there are so many weird people out there, so you can just blend in. I like that.
father healing emotional
I was very empty after my father passed away. It was an emotional time, as it would be for anyone, but to be in the studio every day was kind of cathartic and healing and it just seemed very natural to continue.
community trying different
I love getting into a studio with a bunch of friends. When the day's done, we've made something. We recognize that we're from different walks of the music industry, and there's no reason we shouldn't be collaborating. That's what I'm trying to create with thenewno2 - a sense of community.
wise children father
I can't even begin to describe how I miss him. He always supported me in everything I did. He was a very wise man and I realised at an early age I could learn a lot from him. He always gave me the right answer. But above all he was a very easy-going guy and all he wanted was to be my best friend. I'm an only child and so he shared everything with me. Of course he was very young to die and I was very young to lose a father. But there was nothing left unsaid between us.
growing-up kind natural
It's funny, because music is one of those things it is natural to go into. You hear it so much growing up, it kind of permeates you and eventually you spew out some music of your own.
