Rock and Roll: Music for the neck downwards.
One thing rap and rock have in common, a lot of it is focused on negativity. I like dark stuff.

I've got my own studio, and I've got four- to five-hundred unreleased tracks. I've got stuff that's electronic, orchestral, jazz, I've got rock, I've got metal, you know, I don't have polka.
