McKnight says "Genesis," the follow-up to "More Than Words" (2016), is his attempt at "trying to figure out how to bridge that gap between the music we made in the 90s and trying to make modern music, without sounding 21."
"Technology changes. Sounds change. Who we use as producers change, he says. "I'm 48. I can't make a record that sounds like a Drake record, even if I wanted to. We as the older group of guys have to stay true to ourselves. I'm just gonna make great music.'
The biggest challenge he faced while making "Genesis" was to not overdo it and to not be anyone else. He says the album was about sticking to his guns, doing what he likes and matching it with today.
