“The only thing thats hard to hear is techno unless I’m drunk, then it works.”
– Wyclef Jean
It seems that it is hard to be an extremely popular musician but still be a revolutionary at the same time. Certainly Wyclef Jean disproves that. After The Fugees became a monstrous music phenomenon they stopped making music and they all went on to solo projects with Wyclef being the most successful. Now he’s breaking into movies as the drug dealer in the cop film Dirty and reuniting with The Fugees in Dave Chappelle’s Block Party.

“I use the script as the platform to go and do it and as long as I know what I’m talking about, I dont ever feel the need to go off and immerse myself in any world. I think it’s much more just trying to execute what the writer has intended.”
– Clive Owen
It’s a good time to be Clive Owen. In the past year he’s received an Oscar nomination for Closer, had a big role in the groundbreaking Sin City and made out with Jennifer Aniston in Derailed.

“I think what’s fun in the structure of these movies is that the audience is in on it but one of the characters isn’t.”
– Matthew McConaughey
Matthew McConaughey is very much like the characters he’s played in a few of his movies. He’s easy going, laid back, charming and very easy to talk to. He plays another one of those guys in the romantic comedy Failure to Launch. His character Trip is a wealthy boat broker who still lives with his parents at age 35! So his parents hire Sarah Jessica Parker to fall in love with him so he will have the confidence to move out.

“Sometimes people think one type of artwork is different from another but anything that gets your juices flowing is the same.”
– Senon Williams of Dengue Fever
Dengue Fever is a band with a sound so wild you have to hear it to believe it. They are six person band with a native Cambodian singer named Chhom Nimol. Essentially they are a rock band with that bizarre foreign sound to it. It’s fucking great. I got a chance to talk with their bass guitarist Senon Williams about their album Escape from Dragon House.

“If you dont have pressure you’re not working hard enough.”
– Liam Howlett of The Prodigy
