I love disco and we sample it a lot for Duck Sauce. For me, that sound is kind of a new manifestation.

It's always important to me to play something other DJs aren't playing.

That's what a DJ is at the end of the day - someone who leads where the music goes. The only thing that's changed is that in America, people have woken up in the last few years and realized it.

I was a bit of an outsider in the hip-hop world because I was a scratch kid and people weren't necessarily trying to hear that all the time.

There's a ton of amazing music that's not getting heard.

A few guys will get up there with turntables as purists, to play vinyl or whatever.

There's a lot of producers that are much more technical or gear-skilled than I am. But I have a pure idea of what I like and where I want to go and I follow that.

When I get up I still check the rap blogs before I check any kind of dance stuff.

I'm still a hip-hop producer. I never put a label on what I can do as a producer or a DJ.

We have to wake up early and make songs everyday. I run my record label. You work at hours where your body isn't designed to work. But it's fun.

It's a good feeling to have something to stand for in any part of your life. It's like personal integrity.

Not only have people stopped trying to be attractive when they are out among other people, but they are no longer even trying not to look ugly!

Many stories magnify a fact.

Life on the planet is born of woman.

When you freely express, you are the total style.

One of the reasons people perish without a vision is that they cannot endure the pain and cost required to achieve any worthwhile purpose.

Mercy was more frightening than murder, because it was harder.

Your belief determines your action and your action determines your results, but first you have to believe.

It is important that you strive for humility, but not humiliation, for a cool, level-headed confidence, not a stiff, delusional arrogance.

America is to great to dream small dreams.

Never miss a party if you can make it!
