So when I started playing with it, it was like, ‘Oh man — this really lends itself to a tempo and a flavor that I really understand.’
The music was really how I saw my way in to be able to play the Genie.
That first day messing around with ‘Friend Like Me,’ I noticed that it was in the BPM range of old-school hip-hop.
And that showed me how I could pay homage to Robin and not change the songs so much, so people would have the nostalgic value, but then also be able to come with my own flavor.
