I would love to hear all types of Christian artists played all over the world. I'd love to hear good, positive mainstream music played all over the place. I'd love to be able to bring music together. But I have not deserted Christ. I have not deserted my faith.
Musically, New York is a big influence on me. Walk down the street for five minutes and you'll hear homeless punk rockers, people playing Caribbean music and reggae, sacred Islamic music and Latino music, so many different types of music.
The music does a lot for me. I'm one of those types of artists who the music really inspires my delivery, my cadence, and what I hear.
It is my hope that during my brief passage through this universe, that I may share with you the joy of hearing the music of the stars... knowing that the composer was from a distant place and the songs were written eons ago, which now fall gently on this place for all to hear.
I can't listen to so much music at the same time. I think you really have to have a diet. You're just processing too much, there's no place to put it. If you go a long time without hearing music, then you hear music that nobody else hears.

I am such a music fiend. I go after so many different types of music. I'm on iTunes constantly just buying new music!
Growing up in my household with seven women, I'd hear all types of music.
I find that different types of music are good for certain activities.
The best results come when people believe in and feel strongly about the music they are playing. Just as composers write for certain types of performers, performers are also looking for certain things.
I can see myself retiring from rapping, but I don't think from music. After that, I think I'd just go into some other kind of music, 'cuz I'm a worldwide fan of music, all types of music, all cultures, so I'll always be involved.
[Commercial radio] is owned by one or two corporations now, and they're not in the music business. They're in the advertising business.... So let's not kid ourselves. If you want to hear music, go buy a guitar.
There are certain tenets set in place for all different types on genres. For thrillers, women usually die first.
Radio Disney is the greatest. As a place where young people can come together, have a place to hear music that doesn't think about genre or whatever, it's an amazing place to have a home!
There's almost no popular music I listen to now. I'll hear it because it's everywhere... Music is ubiquitous now.
I think everybody can agree that you can hear a certain song and it will put you in a certain mood, and that's just the beauty of music and I am so inspired by that.
