I really like listening to music in my car.

The gospel music and doo-wop is what has informed me personally.

I started listening to gospel when I was a little boy and my grandmother used to rock me on her lap.

I balance with prayer and music. I sing every day.

In New Orleans, music is part of the culture. You're raised with it, from the cradle to the grave, and all in-between.

The music of the Clovers and Spaniels and the rest was like candy to me. I couldn't get enough; my teachers probably thought I had attention deficit disorder.
