Patrice: As always, it's a pleasure to speak with you about your music and other projects you have going on. Speaking of projects, you are working on your documentary. But before we get into your documentary, tell us how your music career got started. King James Worthy: It's always an exciting story. I'm from Queens, New York; I was always a music nerd, so I always looked at different genres of music. I love musicianship, I love songwriting, and just being around great and legendary artists and other aspects, I enjoyed being around those types of people. My dad did a lot of security work for celebrities and great artists. I had a chance to meet people that way. Every weekend, I went to the record store and brought albums I never heard before to understand musicianship and read credits and sharpen my craft. That's how it got started.
