I always believe that the sky is the beginning of the limit.
The approach that the music industry took to fight piracy was the wrong strategy.
Psy is fantastic. He's shifted the planet. He's got the whole world dancing. And it's a rarity in this world. Only four people made that happen in history - James Brown, Michael Jackson, yours truly and Psy.
You don't have to invent the wheel, but you might want to be the company that invents the rims.

The CD is now the wax album and so it is a collector's item for people who collect music and love to look at the liner notes and feel paper.

You need a box cutter .
I plan on continuing to explore all the possibilities of technology, and then finally film and television and movies. Embrace it.

I started with the Oakland A's back in 1971 and there was press at every game and there were cameras on me when I was that young. So with 20 years being MC Hammer, I'm comfortable with cameras so when the camera goes on, I continue doing what I'm doing.
I think it is a shock to people to find out that MC Hammer is a super geek.
