The Booker thing was a catalyst for me in a bizarre way. It’s perceived as an accolade to be published as a ‘literary’ writer, but, actually, it’s pompous and it’s fake.

I understand you guys know what you want and you stick with it. For me…as long as it’s soulful, and soulful to me is all kinds of music. You have soulful rock, soulful house…you’ve got soul R&B, there’s just so much of it. I don’t want to be pigeonholed into one particular genre. As long as it’s good, that’s what I’m interested in.
