When I say dance music, it's anything that makes me want to dance. It could be Timbaland and Missy Elliott, but it could also be disco music and samba music: It's not relying on melody in the same way; it's more about rhythm.

Radio is being dominated by records that are 120 beats per minute. R&B is about groove and soul.
