The great moments of rock 'n' roll were never off in some corner of the music world, in a self-constructed ghetto.
I put Catholic guilt to work pretty good for a rich rock star.
In my view, the only thing worse than a rock star is a rock star with a conscience.
As hard as it is, as ghetto as it is, hip-hop is pop music. It's the sound of music getting out of the ghetto, while rock is looking for a ghetto.
Pop music often tells you everything is OK, while rock music tells you that it's not OK, but you can change it.
Rock stars are good at making noise.
There was a moment when Prince did rock & roll with a sponge-y seductive sound. I think that's what was in our head for 'Get On Your Boots.' But actually, the song is much more punk rock.
It's quite widespread in rock culture, that mythology of the shooting star. I'd rather be the North star. As bob (Dylan) says, you can navigate by it.
