I suck at video games.
-
'99.9%' is the end product of years and years of me going through multiple styles and interests.
-
I'm my own stylist. Always! I don't wanna hire someone to chose what I should wear. At the same time, I do always wanna wear some crazy clothes.
-
Really, what I'm trying to do is make soul music, but I don't even think of it as a genre. It's more of a feeling.
-
I love the London vibe. I get so much love from London that I never had from other places. It's crazy. The people there understand music so much more.
-
I don't want awkward shows with people looking at their phones or tweeting. That's something you should do at home.
-
People should be going to shows to have fun and express themselves - just enjoy it!
-
I'm not just a remix guy.
-
I'm from the suburbs, really, so I actually didn't go to Montreal until I was, like, 19. I wasn't allowed to go to the city at night or really be in the scene with other producers. It was hard for my parents to understand what I was trying to do as an artist, but it didn't stop me. They eventually saw that it wasn't a joke.
-
Especially for Haitian immigrant parents, being a musician is not a job.
-
I come from hip hop for sure, and there are basic elements of that, but then I'll take from somewhere else, like samba, and do it with trap drums. I like going places other people haven't gone before.
-
I don't have much of a wish list, but I'm dying to work with Erykah Badu. That's pretty much my dream collaboration.
-
I know a lot of people who jumped into a record label right away, dropped an album, and then nothing happened for them. Build your fan base first, and follow your gut.
-
I don't think about doing new. I just do it.
