I was just working with artists that I felt could fit the scenes, fit the show, still be timeless, still be heritage -- [and] still fit today's world. It wound up being an interesting mix. My idea is to make the show global, sonically. When we start shooting the rest of the stuff, you're going to see a bunch of changes happening there as well.
It's the same process because, to me, art and music are brothers and sisters, so they really go parallel. If you hear a young artist that's doing anything amazing, I'm inclined to want to work with that person and give them a shot, and give them opportunity in a way that’s very unique to their style, but also giving them a challenge. But as far as artists and galleries and non-galleries, my whole support is for living artists, especially young living artists.
I also want to shoutout Markuann Smith, who really brought this Bumpy Johnson story to life. He’s one of Forest’s main guys in the film. Just to see the idea come to life with such an all-star cast feels so amazing to be a part of. The people, really just the people. Just like how you’re bringing it up now, you know how you felt when you seen it and you heard it. I’m proud to be able to create a new entry point for the new generation in art and for the artist to be celebrated 100 percent.
