a lot of people, david baker, herbie hancock, all the universities.f these musicians are putting together a curriculum. we are the only country in the world that does not have a minister of culture, the only country, and the most loved music on the planet. everywhere i go in the world, we hear it. tavis: what do you make of the fact we do not have a minister of culture and everybody else in the world does? >> i don't know. i have a clue, but i will say that later when we get the curriculum going. we have had four meetings and it has almost multiplied every time we have had a meeting. it is going to happen. the real thing about how this music came about, because of the spanish inquisition, all the influences, everything. it is astounding. i spent 35 years on it. tavis: back to the cd, bouncing around, forgive me. quincy has a much product. the new cd, "q: soul bossa nostra," i cannot do justice to all of the names. everybody is on this. tell me about the product when it feels like everybody in the hip-hop world wants to do a project to celebrate you? >
