trane_fanatic Posted June 6, 2004 Report Posted June 6, 2004 (edited) From SFGate.com (San Francisco Chronicle - 5/23/04) "I'm supposed to be playing a trumpet player that Fellini met when he came (to the United States) in 1957. It's a cold role, and actually it's going to set up my Miles Davis film. I am going to become Miles Davis. That's a role I could sink my teeth into. He was a great musician and he has an undertone people don't know about. I'd like to do for Miles Davis what Denzel did for Malcolm X. Americans love jazz music, they love Miles Davis, so why not let Snoop Dogg play him?" http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file...PKG196O2EE1.DTL Edited June 6, 2004 by trane_fanatic Quote
trane_fanatic Posted June 6, 2004 Author Report Posted June 6, 2004 "What I was told by Quincy Jones and Baby Face was, if I'd been around in the '50s and '60s, I would have been a jazz musician, by the way I rap -- I go up and down like a jazz musician. That's what they told me. Made me want to learn more about the music. It's a beautiful sound." Quote
