Skrillex. The man is a genius and paved a new way for music and it's very inspiring.
I thought the Billie Holiday comparison was beautiful. I think, Wow, what a wonderful, creative, helpful spirit. She's someone who wanted to help others by sharing her emotion. That's what I do, too, so I think that's a great comparison.
The day I heard Hank Williams for the first time, my life changed.
I'm very proud of my love for Whitney Houston. She really changed my life. She made my life a better life. She was so beautiful in her love for God, her love for her family and her love for music. She truly loved her music. She could do everything! She had flawless rhythm, flawless pitch, flawless feeling, and flawless beauty.
Star Anna is an American original. She sings from a place of beauty that takes me to a higher place.
Debra Winger blows me away, always.
Regina Spektor is great. I can't wait to see what more she's capable of.
As an artist, Priyanka Chopra is quite inspiring - she is unstoppable, fierce, and she does everything!
I've been with Rita Ora in the studio doing a song of hers. She's amazing. She's a sweetheart.
Presently, I really admire Rebecca Warren, the artist. She continues to keep creating wonderful sculpture. And I met her, and she is really cool.
Lady Gaga is phenomenal. From the first day I met her, she was lightning in a bottle.
My daughter is in love with Adele. She listens to her every day. To see someone with that much passion and soul move a 9-year-old is amazing and it's magical.
I have been a huge fan of ABRA ever since I discovered her in 2016. I love her gloomy fresh universe and her youthful unique vocals. Also I find her lyrics and visual output super exciting.
Joseph Gotto, yeah. Just all-around one of the more inspiring artists - not because of any sort of specific content direction, but rather the respect that I had for his own work and the ability for him to translate his ideas into useful form for me as a student.
