data mine my mind

I see a lot of your influence in FKA twigs and Grimes.

I love them as artists, but I feel like I almost want to protect them. I wouldn’t want them to approach or talk about politics, because they do something to me aesthetically that makes me escape. And I think you need artists to serve that purpose. Actually, Michael Jackson is the ultimate entertainer in the world, but he was really political too. I don’t know. Maybe we all have some sort of fragileness and outsiderness. Basically it’s tough to stand up to a lot of stuff unless you are actually coming from a lot of crazy shit.

“If you do the right thing often enough, or when you admit wrongdoing and try to get it right, you stick it out and persevere. You can have a pretty good life.”
