Some people are really drawn to technology and I liken them to artists.

A grocer is attracted to his business by a magnetic force as great as the repulsion which renders it odious to artists.

Well, a lot of people within government and big business are nervous of Hip Hop and Hip Hop artists, because they speak their minds. They talk about what they see and what they feel and what they know. They reflect what's around them.

Memory is the greatest of artists, and effaces from your mind what is unnecessary.

Competitions are for horses, not artists.

Creative Artists Agency put together a project of extraordinary mediocrity and colossal stupidity. Otherwise, it was great.

I paint German artists whom I admire. I paint their pictures, their work as painters, and their portraits too. But oddly enough, each of these portraits ends up as a picture of a woman with blonde hair. I myself have never been able to work out why this happens.

I think there is an element of nihilism about, but I don't think most artists feel their work is meaningless.

Wynton and Christopher were really great experiences for me because they are both very gifted artists.

I have enjoyed all the artists I've worked with.

Country radio certainly widens the boundaries of what I can do. Other artists may do something more edgy that gets on radio and that opens the door for me to be more edgy, I think.

There are certain people who have become better artists, but they're brilliant at marketing. I think someone who's been phenomenal like that is Madonna.

Some artists shrink from self-awareness, fearing that it will destroy their unique gifts and even their desire to create. The truth of the matter is quite opposite.

I wasn't thinking of competing with any artists as such, I was more thinking of being among them, and sharing thoughts with them; like sharing views, ideas, etc.

We're not cameras, we're artists.

As I had collaborated with visual artists before whether on installations, on performance pieces, in the context of theatre works and as I had taught for a time in art colleges the idea of writing music in response to painting was not alien.

The deals that were made for Black artists at that time were not the deals that were made for white artists.
