Optimism Is A Revolutionary Act

The Current State Of Music Journalism Is Not Bad, But It's Not Great At All. Some Of The Hip-hop Stuff People Get Into Is Exciting, Because There's A Passion And There's Something To Explain To A More Mainstream Audience, So You Get These Passionate Writers Who Want To Express Their Love For Rap And Hip-hop, Which Is Cool. But There Are Too Many Magazines, And The Access Has Been Diminished, So The Quality Of Profiles Has Gone Way Down. Internet Stuff Can Be Really Good, Though. I Like The Dialogue Between Fans On The Internet. I Think That's The Best Rock Writing That's Going On Right Now.

I Write With Music. I Write Scenes In Movies That Hopefully Can Earn The Use Of Some Songs That Are Powerful To Me.

Well It Kind Of Is Project To Project Because As A Writer I Think You Always Write To Some Degree About Things That You Know Or Things That Happened - But My Favourite Filmmakers, My Favourite Movies Of Theirs Tend To Be The Personal Movies.

Many People Don't Have An Outlet For Their Feelings Or How They Can Express Life And Not Everybody In A Relationship Is The Kind Of Person Who Wants To. But If You Can Write, You Can Find A Good Way To Do It.

There's Several Ways To Be A Journalist. One Way Is To Be Combative And Take The Person To Task And What You Have Is A Portrait Of Somebody Defending Themselves, Which Is Interesting. The Other Thing Is To Slip Into Their World And Really Be A Representative For All The People That Love The Experience Of That Artist, And Have Them Get So Comfortable That You Become Invisible And They're Themselves.
