A. The 2006 VH-1 Hip Honors Honoring Wu-Tang Clan will always remain undeniable. Every moment prior to and the show itself are part of my two loves. Just a few weeks prior, I had given birth, so neither baby or the show would allow me to sleep. In dedication to them both, I came to work. Though while I ran around backstage, the vivid and candid images of Method Man holding and rocking my daughter Hailey cannot be matched. Accompanied by the smiles of her new Wu-uncles never seem to get old.  At that moment and now, it  honors the iconic and groundbreaking contributions of their work and my priceless love for my daughter.

The idea of physical music changed over the last two decades like music technology crosses culture lines and brings society together under one huge umbrella.
