"Hip-hop is not something we do, it's something we live. It's the way we dress, the way we talk... everybody bobbing to the same beat. It's a culture, and you have to find your own place in that culture. Top 10 or Top 40 can't dictate that. They can only dictate what's marketable."

-- Erykah Badu

Whenever you play in front of 400 or 500 more people than you're used to it's always a weird, transitional period.”
