It's like that scene from The Player when they talk about merging Star Wars and Kramer vs. Kramer, or whatever. You could do that with music and it would just be awful.
I was such a huge 'Seinfeld' fan, and I walked on the set, and I saw Kramer. I walked into Jerry's apartment, and I was like, 'Oh my God, this is Jerry's apartment.'
I love Krishna Vamsi very much as a director, and after working with him, I also started to like him personally.
Women sportspersons like Krishna Poonia and Seema Antil are role models for Haryanvi women.
When I came to the industry, many directors like Krishna Vamsi and Puri Jagannath had encouraged me a lot. Krishna Vamsi is my mentor, and I admire him. That's why I give chances to new directors.
We are disciples of Krishna, and we look at ourselves like Arjun in the battlefield.
I actually like 'The Shining' more than I like Kubrick, I think. The tension he sustains through the whole film is so great.
It's often the case with directors that they don't like to share credit, which is the case of Stanley. He would prefer just A Film By Stanley Kubrick including music and everything.
The Kurdish people have the right of self-determination like every other nation in the world.
What is postwar Iraq going to look like, with the Kurds and the Sunnis and the Shiites? That's a huge question, to my mind.
My favorite Tyler Perry movie? Ugh, how can you decide? For me, it's basically like: Kurosawa, Tyler Perry, Martin Scorsese, in that order.
My love of visual sequences stems from live-action films like Sergio Leone westerns, Kurosawa, some '70s action films, Tex Avery, and my general love of animated movement.
I'm really into, like, characters - music characters like Sid Vicious and Kurt Cobain - just, like, how they are and stuff. Like Lil Wayne.
Whenever people hear that Kurt Cobain was a fan of my standup, it's like hearing Jimi Hendrix loved Buddy Hackett or something.
And if I'm honest about it, I was obsessed with Nirvana and Pearl Jam. This is like '92, right in the throes of Soundgarden and Pearl Jam and Nirvana. I think I probably wanted to be Kurt Cobain.
Whether it's created in a lab, written by a programmer, or lands on the White House lawn as a visitor from the stars, if it acts like a human being, it is a human being.
I don't watch the news because I understand that I'm like a science lab. Whatever I take in is how I feel.
I don't like the intellectual label.
I don't like to be labeled, to be anything. I've made the mistake before myself of labeling my music, but it's counter-productive.
We are all people... don't label me as an LGBT rapper or a female rapper... I don't like to be labeled.
