JJ: Tell us how you got the music.
BM: My father is a musician and my mother was a singer. My father New Songs was from Brooklyn and was a Latin percussionist, so I always had instruments around the house. He used to play a show as a rock and roll 1950 with Little Richard's music. Would do, doo-wop songs and stuff like that. My uncle would imitate Elvis, so I used to watch him and I said one day: "Coach, put me in" So basically I had 2-3 years, and he brought me on stage.
JJ: So young!
BM: Yes, I was a child - a Tyke!
JJ: What are your musical inspirations at this time?
BM: Everyone, man. I have much love for classical music and I feel so much incredible music. As a producer, I get this question a lot. I like to work with Coldplay one day. You know, you get New Songs a little 'round. You should know a number of music and have Michael Jackson Songs respect for all types of musical genres and styles.
JJ: Any other artists for the album have?
BM: I'm Damian Marley (the youngest son of Bob Marley) on a song called "Liquor Store Blues." Being from Hawaii, a lot of people do not know that reggae is huge out there, and I will be in a reggae band, when I was in Hawaii. So if I had the song, I made the call to Damian. It 'was on tour, I had not New Songs even met yet. He heard the song and we have in the studio and did his thing.
