No one can throw the first stone. I listen to too many artists that are flawed as individuals to be picking on that. I don't know why it is because almost every artist that I respect and love is hardly a saint, it might be that true visionaries are able to cross a lot of lines because they have passionate and fiery personalities, and sometimes those lines are crossed for bad. I don't know how to explain it but I feel that someone that is so self-conscious as to be 'good model citizen' will also be the same with his music, it will be someone too rational as to make any art that I would be interested in...

I dunno if that makes any sense, but I've been thinking about it for a bit...
