The conversation was dubbed Q&A (Quincy and Andre). Dre, obviously excited, begins the interview by telling Jones he’s a musical genius, to which Jones humbly accepts the praise and hilariously admits despite all he’s done, he doesn’t know how to drive.

“There was an armory. I broke into the armory and eventually I broke into all the supervisors’ rooms and there was one where I saw a little piano in the room and I closed the door. Something said to me, ‘Idiot, go back in that room!’ I went back in the room and touched the piano… and every drop of blood in my body said, ‘this is what you’re gonna do for the rest of your life.’…and it saved my life.”
