'I said this five years ago that America and the world would be completely unrecognizable. And everyone thought I was crazy. And they probably still do. I do, shit.'
What it’s like formulating the Pharrell and Friends set? Do you ever feel any pressure to “top” the previous year?
It looks like the Love stage is full of more up-and-coming acts. How rewarding is it for you to be able to give them some of their first big looks? We have to. If we’re going to be welcoming to a community, we’ve got to make room for the faith base. I grew up in the church. Some of my earliest experiences and life were with my aunt, a record player, and going to church with my grandmothers on Sundays. You got to provide a space for them to come. It’s a Sunday, one. Two, it’s a place for them to sing worship at Fellowship. And be at one with the universe, give God the glory, and sing and praise.
Oh, man. I love DC. And yeah, if the opportunity presents itself. But there’s also time too. It’s definitely time. We enjoyed ourselves. We had a great time in the community and we did a lot of leave behind there as well. But yeah, I guess it would depend on time and what the actual opportunity was. But I was very grateful at the reception. And we had a ball.
Well, first of all, it’s been here. The implications are insurmountable. But we have depended on our phones for about ten years. Our phones have been, in many different ways, making precognitive suggestions on what you may like because it’s looking at your every move, of everything that you’re doing, and assuming what your choices might be or what you might like. Or when you’re on Spotify, and it plays you a bunch of stuff that it thinks you’re going to like. These things, we’ve been used to.
And, listen, with all knowledge, there is a huge responsibility. Unused knowledge is a sin. That’s why we have wisdom. And wisdom is power in when you use something. And when you do that properly, that’s when we get to understand them. But that’s where we are right now; it’s the Wild West. I said this five years ago that America and the world would be completely unrecognizable. And everyone thought I was crazy. And they probably still do. I do, shit.
