I Got Into Dj'ing Because I Started

So When I Was Working With Amy Winehouse On "back To Black," You Know, She Had All These Beautiful Songs, Incredibly Well-written And Just Her On An Acoustic, Nylon-string Guitar. And She'd Play Them For Me, And Then I Would Kind Of Drum Up My Idea Of What I Thought - Make A Demo With What I Thought The Drums Should Be Doing, The Guitars - Like, Quite A Crude Demo.

D'angelo Could Sing The Phonebook And It Would Sound Good.

You Know, Like, There's Songs Like "valerie" And "bang Bang Bang" That I Was So Proud Of. And, You Know, The Level Of Success That They Had - If They Were Little Cult Hits Meant That, You Know, I Could Sellout Webster Hall Or Williamsburg Musical Hall Or The El Rey Theater In La. Like, That Was Having Made It To Me. So The Thought Of Having A Number One Song In My Own Career, Like, Never Even Registered.

Stevie Wonder Doing 'we Can Work It Out' By The Beatles Is One Of My Favorite Records Of All Time.

It's Like Every Time You Have One Of These, You're Sort Of - Your Lease Is Renewed Another Five Years. And That's Kind Of Great For Me 'cause That's All I Really Want To Be Doing Still At This Point, Like Just Making Records And Getting To Work With, Like, Artists That I Think Are Exciting.
