I really love rap music. I grew up in the 80s and 90s with Public Enemy, N.W.A., LL Cool J – Im a hip-hop encyclopedia. But I got kind of frustrated with the chauvinistic side of rap music, the one that makes it hard to write songs about love and relationships. – Mayer Hawthorne
Id love to go back to Europe in the 20s and 30s, for the beginning of the Psychoanalytic Movement, and Freud and Jung, and all that was going on with discoveries in quantum physics. The whole nature of reality was changing and being challenged. – Michael Sheen
