So at a time in which the media give the public everything it wants and desires maybe art should adopt a much more aggressive attitude towards the public. I myself am very much inclined to take this position.
You'd like more people to recognise what you do is special. But I take the attitude that the best thing I can do for my sport is to be the best at it. The best way people will come to recognise that track and field is a great sport is to see athletes excelling at it. Which is what I intend to do.
I think that generally music should be a positive thing I like Bob Marley's attitude: he said that his goal in life was to single handedly fight all the evil in the world with nothing but music and when he went to a place he didn't go to play he went to conquer.
