Frederick Roussel:

The extremism of this culture is the real extremism in the world right now. Please. Write some decent lyrics. I'm tired of "sex money" music pumping out of the sound system. There has to be something more out there for people. Can't we all have a good time without becoming extreme? Can't we be sexy without being vile? Can't we be attractive without being hideous? Is the world really such a one track place? I hope this mask is brought down, because the mask is too powerful. It looks upon us and watches us making sure we can't create alternatives to this crazy brand.

We are not herded into hiphop, pop, funk, or dance. We are not bundled onto the same crap museum display of past culture.

Healthy protest is needed right now. Healthy protest is a good thing. It's good to be angry once in a while, good to be upset once in a while, healthy to see through the cracks.

Not everyone feels like they're in one group. Or love one thing. Nobody loves one thing. Only music can cast a spell, a spell upon all those who still believe in social justice.
