AFROJACKOne of the reasons why my album is called ‘Forget the World’ is because when you listen to the world, you make stupid mistakes.
AFROJACKMy debut album, ‘Forget the World,’ is all about not listening to the negativity around you and to continue to do what you love, no matter what people think.
AFROJACKMaybe one day there will finally be an education for electronic music.
AFROJACKI think the most important thing about dance music is the connection.
AFROJACKEvery song, every form of art, clothing, shoes, it has to be special.
AFROJACKThe only thing you can do to lead a crowd is prove your passion to them.
AFROJACKI love what I do. Dance music is my passion, my life. There is no greater feeling than being one with my fans, partying to the music we love.
AFROJACKIf you put 80,000 people together, no one knows each other, and once the music starts, everyone loves each other.
AFROJACKI love design and actually went to school for a bit for graphic design, so it isn’t so much ‘pressure’ for me; it’s a way to be creative, and I really enjoy it.
AFROJACKCars for me are like a piece of art.
AFROJACKI studied psychology for a couple of years as a personal hobby, so you start learning about people and listening to your intuition, like when you you’re feeling that people are not being entirely straight with you.
AFROJACKWe didn’t have money for a babysitter, so she always brought me with her to the dancing school. Back then, I was already watching and listening to Michael Jackson for a long time.
AFROJACKWhen I was a baby, my mom used to have a dance school, and she used to teach classes there.
AFROJACKThat doesn’t happen with a lot of genres. If you go to a hip-hop club, it’s not like when one songs comes on that everyone suddenly loves each other.
AFROJACKPeople need realness, reality. People can sense when someone is being pretentious or fake. It’s because you feel it; you see it in someone’s body language.
AFROJACKPeople always say, ‘How is it to be so successful?’ I’m not successful yet. Richard Branson is successful. That’s successful. Michael Jackson was successful. U2 was successful.
