I’m not trying to be new school and I’m not old school – I’m classic. There’s a lot of new cars and there’s a lot of old cars, but I’m just classic in doing what I do.
The people who go get an LL album want to hear LL. They don’t want to hear LL trying to sound like DMX or whoever else is out there. That’s not what they want to hear from me, because if they want to hear that they can go get the real thing.
