My earliest memories of defying my parents were through music. I remember rap being banned in my house, and then getting a Cam'ron album.

In my shows, I always try to incorporate music because it's the most natural way to set a tone. So if I want to do a show about depression, I use the opera. If I want to do a show about greed, I use spoken word. If I want to do a show about the injustice that's taking place in the world, I might play Sam Cooke.

I don't know which was the first love - music or fashion.
