We love Justin. He's a native. It's very exciting to have someone of his significance participate in the music scene here.

Do you want sixth-graders with 12th-graders?

The decision came about because I was tired of sitting around on my birthday, so I said, 'Why not go out there?'. I love to party and play music, so why not make money for a good cause?

I was born with music inside me. Music was one of my parts. Like my ribs, my kidneys, my liver, my heart. Like my blood. It was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. It was a necessity for me-like food or water.

It was Chinese music. I couldn't understand it, but it had a good beat to it.

What makes my approach special is that I do different things. I do jazz, blues, country music and so forth. I do them all, like a good utility man.
