It’s validation that this rock and rap thing we’ve been doing since we started it is now getting bigger and bigger now, because some of the biggest names in rock have been working with me, after all these years, and the biggest names in rap, as well. I’m a big Doors fan: Strange Days, “ People Are Strange.” I named my label Strange Music because I’m such a humongous Doors fan.
