"Urban Classic is an interesting concept that I think is really overdue. It might be a surprise to a lot of people but it's not to me because you regularly hear classical influences and samples in a lot of urban music.
"This is the next step for urban music, we need to bridge that gap and be able to play the music with live instruments." - Cameo
