How do cultural icons influence global talent? I remember discovering an artist from another country who cited a well-known musician as their inspiration. It was amazing to see how music transcends borders and brings people together. Who's a global icon that has inspired you?

Music really is a universal language. It’s amazing how someone like Jimi Hendrix can inspire artists all the way across the world. I love seeing how different cultures interpret those influences in their own unique style. For me, Bob Marley has always been that kind of global icon—his music and message still hit deep no matter where you're from.
