When I was up in New York, the first record my parents bought me was the Terror Squad record with 'Lean Back.'

I didn't have no friends or nothing; I was a nerdy kid.

I was a sad kid.

Hip-hop and country aren't too far different: They got shiny suits and the boots and the guitars with their names on it. I was infatuated with that type of stuff.

In short, software is eating the world.

I did not want to be an engineer or be in information technology, and my parents were supportive of my decision.

I've had so many parents DM me on social media thanking me because I simply have dreadlocks, because their daughters wear dreadlocks and play with dreadlocks, and I'm like, 'Well why not? Let's do it.' It's really cool to be able to inspire the younger generation of kids of color that look like us.

Definitely, something is happening out there in Internet world at any given moment, but the likelihood that it's something that can't wait until that evening for you to find out about it is very small.
