How are you all doing?

New album retrospect?

Yes, sir.

What does this album mean to you?

This album is a journey back into time,

the time that influenced me to sign up to music.

You know, when I fell in love with music for the first time,

it was literally soul, funk, R&B that filled my household vinyl days,

the collection that my parents had.

A lot of dancing going on, a lot of singing going on in the living room, but culture as well.

The block parties, the skating rinks, those gatherings where your family would come over, laughter, children playing.

So it's a celebration.

Nobody could look at you and tell you grew up in that era, by the way.

Like literally, no.
