is a big part of who i am so i grew up listening to a lot of classical music certainly song by my aunt danielle but also my father listened to a lot of bach and mozart at home all the arts played a huge part of my daily life since i was born i would just like to say that all was so thrilled to be here so thrilled to the always welcomed back they say you know they say welcome home to me when i'm here even if it's been even if it's been a few years that i haven't been back and even if i'm so ashamed that i don't speak arabic but they but my family and friends always say welcome home and that is how i feel so i really am grateful for that.

i was recording this morning at capitol records for a show called the x. factor we do it usually on sundays every week it ranges from a couple hours to several hours today was about a 3 hour session. and my uncle is joining us he has traveled from northern california city called palo alto. and he'll be arriving at los angeles international airport where we're on our way to go collect him i think we're going to really enjoy meeting him because he's from palestine born and raised the problem speaks arabic unfortunately i speak nowhere so i'm i'm really happy that i can bring my whole goal and. culture to our our gathering here so for now i will grab my uncle and head back to the house. and then spent some time ago.
