It was like returning to my roots, in Continental Groove It was a way to try everything new, I left future funk aside, but I wanted to go back to my roots, concentrate on what I was already known for, now I have all these kinds of production techniques that I have learned over the years and now I can do what I want to do, do it very well and just take a step forward. It was a lot of fun, I did everything myself, it was a lot of fun to do samplessomething I hadn't done in a long time. Going back to the roots and finding fun ways to improve my sound.”
