Whenever I am on camera or doing anything on mic, I don't have any process at all. I just do it and, when I'm finished, it goes away. There is no process. I wish there were some techniques to it. I just turn it on and off, and then I go home.
Eddie Murphy

Growing up, I liked all the stuff that everyone else was listening to, like Motown, but the biggest group of all was The Beatles.
