When I'm born I'm black, when I grow up I'm black, when I'm in the sun I'm black, when I'm sick I'm black, when I die I'm black, and you... when you're born you're pink, when you grow up you're white, when you're cold you're blue, when you're sick you're blue, when you die you're green and you dare call me colored ↗

I think ethnic and regional labels are insulting to writers and really put restrictions on them. People don't think your work is quite as universal. ↗

For new bands, I think a major label is the safest place to be. Independent labels are the ones getting away with murder. A lot of them are hobbyists who rip-off young bands, taking advantage of people who would never get signed to a major. ↗

I now believe that major labels can only work with people who care more about fame and money than the quality of the art they produce. ↗

I think fashion is a lot of fun. I love clothes. More than fashion or brand labels, I love design. I love the thought that people put into clothes. I love when clothes make cultural statements and I think personal style is really cool. I also freely recognize that fashion should be a hobby. ↗

I love music and musicians. And seeing great artists dropped from labels was really frustrating and sad to me. ↗

If people have to put labels on me, I'd prefer the first label to be human being, the second label to be pacifist, and the third to be folk singer. ↗

We aren't as concerned about the live aspect as other labels. The best live bands are the easiest to record. ↗

Major labels blow all their money massively and blame it on the band. ↗
