I collect many hats, but I do like Bailey's Hats, and I order them online.
At a time when club music has gone more electronic, I've gone the other way: organic and world music.
Dance is merging with the more mainstream hip hop/R&B scene, and there will be new ideas and sounds.
Look at Daft Punk and Kanye West. The song 'Stronger' was inspired by a Daft tune. Once the hip-hop scene opens up to all the great music that came out of dance, it will continue to spread to the more mainstream audience.
At rehearsals, I began conducting the band, counting them in without thinking. I guess it came from watching salsa legends like my uncle and Tito Puente, who was very much the leader of his band on stage.
I want to record many albums, have a healthy record label with talented artists, keep building my publishing catalogue, and maintain our culture with good music that will be remembered for years to come.
