Karol G Quotes

I like the idea of an eclectic approach, incorporating jazz with other forms and other genres of music.

For us, it is all about breaking the boundaries between different genres of music and combining different styles of music and performing what we are passionate about. We are so lucky that we can experience both worlds: the more intimate classical world and the wild and crazy world of rock n' roll.

We like to combine genres. Theo grew up listening to punk, and I love Christina Aguilera.

My brothers came home with country, jazz, everything... it was always very normal to me to make any type of music. It was possible to fuse all the sounds, so it never sounded confusing to me to mix jazz and dubstep.

The tapes we were making would jump around with different styles, just quick parts of different songs. Hip-hop to jazz to funk to whatever else. And in a way, 'Check Your Head' ended up being like one of those pause-tapes.

I really like jazz and soul, but I also love so many other types of music, and I didn't want to be afraid to blend and experiment.

They believed you can't mix rock, country, and rap, and that crossover is dead. I always knew it would work. And it will always work as long as you're really into it and like what you're doing.

I just loved classical music, but I also loved playing rock guitar, and I loved playing piano, so it was a natural thing that those things would merge at some point.

The folk music definition has changed in this fast music world and musical styles are blending really quickly.

I love mixing up my genres.

I never thought that I would be creating my own 'cross-over' genre. What I did was very real and organic. I have worked in so many different styles so it all just came together.

It's a really diverse time in music, with all these different DJs and all these different categories, and we are all taking footnotes from everyone else. There are no real genre boundaries anymore; you can take a trance idea and put it into a trap record - it's not that uncommon.

I think my music has always been a mixture, depending on whom I'm working with - what band, what musicians, what producer.

I'm very, very open to experimenting with different people and trying to find different methods of writing and making music.

If you think of any strange fusion with bachata, most likely, we've done it. It's bachata mixed with different elements. We don't follow any style.

I would love to do some collaborations for my album - the more the merrier! It's fun to experiment and get to tap into different genres and sounds through collaborations.

If we have to put music into baskets, then the progressive rock bands I fell in love with as a teenager made sounds that shaded into jazz, folk, metal, and in the case of the wonderful (and sadly missed) Jon Lord, modern classical music.

My whole life, I've always had one foot in the classical world and one foot in the rock, pop, and folk world.

Performing with Thomas Rhett our song 'Craving You,' I'm so excited for the fans to see it and sort of see our worlds come together because I feel like he's sort of a genre pusher and boundary pusher, and I feel the same way about my music.

All of the genres are just blending now, which I think is another super-cool thing.

I keep my hip-hop as hip-hop, my R&B as R&B and my pop as pop. The ability to cross those boundaries and do all these things effectively is not commonly done.

I don't have a genre because I play lots of different music that people would say are different genres.

I've been criticized for doing so - crossover music. But I never claimed to be a pure dancehall artist.

I like pop music, and I like really weird, strange stuff. It just didn't feel like there was anyone doing both.

I grew up with all different genres of music, and I want to include that in my production as well.
