AR:
[Do] you think it makes a difference in your art or for your art, for your output whether you have a so to say rich or well embedded setting, economic setting, or whether you have to strive for life conditions under which you are able to produce art?

KE:
I do n[o]t know … I mean, I know that being rich does n[o]t necessarily make you …, make better art but I think the opposite is also true: being poor does n[o]t make you necessarily a good artist. I mean, … yes, striving for something maybe makes your art more valuable but not in an artistic way. But I mean, I do n[o]t know, … I was never rich so I can[no]t know how my art would sound if I were rich. But I was also never poor, either. I am a middle class guy, I always had enough money to make music - just enough, right. So I guess I am not the right person to ask that. But if you go [and] ask a person who has strived a lot to - you know - make money to create the right environment of course that person will tell you that it has made, that it made a big difference on him and that rich kids make worse art than him. Most probably, he will tell you that because he has worked so much on that that he will be defensive about it - most probably. So, it [i]s difficult to get an objective answer on that.
