Let me be completely honest with you, man…and I’m a Stevie Wonder fan. Jones: Wow! I don’t know about that (laughing). But I gotta tell you, your rendition of Stevie Wonder’s, ‘Knocks Me Off My Feet,’ I believe you outdid the legend on that one. Zenger: ‘Where I Wanna Be’ has to be one of the greatest songs ever made. It was something that I was supposed to do, and it hit me at that specific moment. And that’s exactly what happened with that particular song.

When songs hit me like that when I’m sleeping, that means I’m supposed to do it. So, immediately I went downstairs and started making the music, and just wrote a whole new song from it, but I kept their thing, which was, “Payback.” She asked me, ‘Damn, what song is that?’ And I told her that it was The Stylistics joint.

I woke up one day I was in bed with my wife, and I woke up singing the song. So, I always knew one day I was going to do something with that particular record. Me and my group used to sing that record. That record was an old record from, The Stylistics. Jones: Thank you! For me, it’s always been just following my heart. Is it just a matter of keeping your ear to the street? I’m always amazed how artists like you are able to not only create timeless music but relative music as well. Zenger : ‘Karma (Payback),’ love the new single.

Jones: Yeah, man! It really opened up the social media thing for me. Still, most of you have been using social media and the internet in a remarkable way to supplement the lack of touring and public appearances. I think it stinks that you guys aren’t able to promote and tour. Zenger: It definitely changed all of us in some way, shape, or form. It made me want to get out in that sun, so in that sense, it kind of helped me a little bit because I’m always in the house. I got out and started working out a lil’ bit. But what it really made me do is made me think about my life and changed a few things. So, it really didn’t change my life as far as that.
