When you start putting too much thought into it, the music starts getting too revealing. You don't need to know all my inner thoughts.
I grew up in the '90s. My goal isn't to be a '90s rapper, but I have little hints of '90s influence in my music. It's a modern approach to classic rap.
I'm not the type of guy to go so deep with the concept songs, but there's deep thought in everything. Maybe it's not just a repetitive hook telling you what the song is about - you have to use your brain a little bit.
I'm a man of different types of flavors and tastes. I like listening to things that inspire me. Older music, when instruments were being played, not just people hitting buttons. It's manlier. You're touching things to make sounds appear.
Whenever I cook, I think of Spanish music, so I always have to listen to some sort of salsa. It gets your body going.
I'm naturally a nice person. I'm not trying to have any problems with people. I'm done with the drama and trouble. I want a stress-free life.
This is just rap. I'm not trying to make people think I'm some sort of scientific wizard or inspirational poet.
I just do whatever I do, and put it out there without tryin' to cater to anybody. If you like it, you like it.
I love to cook a meal for the so-called holidays. You always need the turkey. I like making a good BBQ brisket as well.
I got a lot of influence from my father, honestly. He'd take me in his car. I'd hear Carlos Santana. I'd hear Queen. I'd hear all these Turkish people, like, bands that he grew up listening to. He was in a band as well.
I'm gonna be honest. I don't care about much. I care about people liking my music. I made it very far without nothing being on radio.
The restaurant business is something that you have to treat like a baby. You have to constantly be there. You can't trust it to anybody else, because no one's going to love it like you do.
