"I have a record coming out called Velvet Portraits," Terrace Martin told The FADER earlier this year. "My record took a turn because throughout To Pimp A Butterfly; there was a real family thing going on. We all went through a lot of trials and tribulations... it made me want to pull closer with myself, and it really made me want to pull closer with God... I can always depend on that dude because he keeps me in line. God told me, redo your record and have your father record on drums... when I put him on [Velvet Portraits], a whole 'nother level of connection and spirituality just came out the music. I was like, 'Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!'"
