ON THE ESSENCE OF THEIR MUSIC

“Growing up in Newark and being so close to New York City, something’s always happening. It’s a cop blowing a whistle. It’s an ambulance going by. It’s the ghetto. It’s the dream of being successful. It’s How do I get out of here? It’s What am I going to do with my life? It’s Am I going to work in a factory for my whole life? When you grow up that way the time comes for you to make up your mind as to what you really wanna do. The Four Seasons music came out of that.”
