Quote

It's not the best between my family and me. There are so many crimes left unpunished, debts unpaid, white elephants in the middle of the room that no one will even offer a peanut to. We are in the red, emotionally speaking.

I am star-struck but also I've known a lot of people for a long time. Like I'm super star-struck by Grant Lee Phillips and Jon Brion but I've known them for 17 years. So it's kinda like weird to be star-struck still, but I still am!

I could definitely rock out to Kraftwerk's Tour De France, Tubeway Army, or Gary Numan. All of that stuff has an infectious beat, but with Oh Yeah, I can't even identify what's going on. It sounds like typewriter keys, a couple of synth notes and then this really deep Oh yeah, which I always picture as Andre The Giant on vocals.

As a woman of color you have little more permission to go deeper and question things because your identity, in a way, is a shield. But if you come at it from a minority status, my person, who I am, softens the blow of whatever it is that I'm saying, because I am that.
