More From Art Blakey

I love jazz. so to me, there are two main types of jazz. there's dancing jazz, and then there's listening jazz. listening jazz is like thelonius monk or john coltrane, where it's a listening experience. so that's what i like; i like to make stuff that you listen to. it's not really meant to get you up; it's meant to get your mind focused. that's why you sit and listen to jazz. you dance to big band or whatever, but for the most part, you sit and listen to jazz. i think it comes from that aesthetic, trying to take that jazz listening experience and put it on hip-hop.

Gather out of star-dust, earth-dust, cloud-dust, storm-dust, and splinters of hail, one handful of dream-dust, not for sale.

I don't mind being classified as a jazz artist, but i do mind being restricted to being a jazz artist. my foundation has been in jazz, though i didn't really start out that way. i started in classical music, but my formative years were in jazz, and it makes a great foundation.
Artist Years Mind
Jazz is the greatest american art form and our greatest export. we don't pay attention to the youth of jazz, don't stoke the fires creatively for the youth coming up. i feel like jazz musicians became too much of purists - with donald byrd doing funk jazz in the '70s.

I grew up in a home filled with music and had an early appreciation of jazz since my dad was a jazz musician. beginning at around age three i started singing with his band and jazz music has continued to be one of my three passions along with acting and writing. i like to say jazz music is my musical equivalent of comfort food. it's always where i go back to when i want to feel grounded.

Time is a lot of the things people say that god is. there's always preexisting, and having no end. there's the notion of being all powerful-because nothing can stand against time, can it? not mountains, not armies. and time is, of course, all-healing. give anything enough time, and everything is taken care of: all pain encompassed, all hardship erased, all loss subsumed. ashes to ashes, dust to dust. remember, man, that thou art dust; and unto dust thou shalt return. and if time is anything akin to god, i suppose that memory must be the devil.

A people are as healthy and confident as the stories they tell themselves. sick storytellers can make nations sick. without stories we would go mad. life would lose it’s moorings or orientation... stories can conquer fear, you know. they can make the heart larger.
