Just about the entirety of the first album, 'Brown Sugar,' I wrote it, the majority of that record in my bedroom in Richmond. And all of the demos for it were done on a four-track in my bedroom.

So those artists are very exciting to me, very exciting to follow their path, you know, and their journey.
