People ask me: ‘what is punk? how do you define punk?' here's how i define punk: it's a free space. it could be called jazz. it could be called hip-hop. it could be called blues, or rock, or beat. it could be called techno. it's just a new idea. for me, it was punk rock. that was my entrance to this idea of the new ideas being able to be presented in an environment that wasn't being dictated by a profit motive.

New york was always more expensive than any other place in the united states, but you could live in new york - and by new york, i mean manhattan. brooklyn was the borough of grandparents. we didn't live well. we lived in these horrible places. but you could live in new york. and you didn't have to think about money every second.
New York Mean Thinking
In new york, i was excited about the music in new york because the only music that i was more or less involved with in the south was either country and western or hillbilly music as we used to call it when i was a kid and, ah, gospel. there was no, there was no in between. and when i got to new york all the other musics that's in the world just came into my head whether it was the classics, jazz, i never knew what jazz was about all, had heard anything about jazz.

As far as my new york influence, one thing i'm proud of in my career is, i rep brooklyn, new york all day. but people don't look at my music as new york music. people consider my music underground music.
