All the Public Enemy albums, I knew what records they were sampling but was like, 'How'd they construct it like this?!'.

For me, sampling is a high art. Most people don't see it that way, but it's a beautiful thing. I wouldn't know anything about music if it wasn't for samples. There are a lot of people who really abused sampling and gave it a bad name, by just taking people's entire hit songs and rapping over them.

A creative life is an amplified life. It's a bigger life, a happier life, an expanded life, and a hell of a lot more interesting life.
