Yeah, it was tough to pick a Patrice Rushen album, but she’s a huge inspiration for me too because she’s such a hardcore instrumentalist, she can rip it up doing jazz solos and stuff. She’s a really good example of somebody who could combine like jazz and pop and yeah, she’s a huge role model for me too.
