The same people who smile in my face would be the same ones to talk behind my back.

I never had any plans to become a producer when I was a kid. I wanted to be a DJ, like most other kids at the time. Then my mum bought me a Casio keyboard and I started to sample sounds that I liked.

I've always tried different stuff in the studio. I use rakes, spoons, cans... I'm a surround-sound type of guy.

I'm trying to do something real different; I'm trying to bring the street to real pop. I'm trying to bring the street to pop. Not watering it down, no nothing.
