“I’ve always been a fan of music. I would say I’m a fan of late ’90s to early 2000s rap. That’s where I get all my inspiration from.”

I wanna move on but my feelings too strong.

Kids look up to me. I’m not saying I make my music for kids, I do what I feel, its just a self reflection of how I am as a person and it relates to a lot of people.

I guess with the generation we live in, we just want to be entertained at the end of the day. A lot of artists make themselves accessible, so they feel like every artist should be like that. Some artists shouldn’t be so accessible, to me.

As far as business moguls, I’m always a fan of how Jay Z moves. He was just always very strategic ever since he came into the game.

You’re not just making music for your personal use no more, just making music for your homies around you; you’re making music for people around the world. Kids in Alaska – like, you’re making music for everybody. When I make music, I just think on a larger scale.

I keep telling myself that I don’t miss you and that I don’t love you hoping that someday I will believe it.

I don’t really do too many interviews – I like creating and being visual, shooting videos and movies. I just like showcasing my skill and challenging myself.

I am an artist who’s just tryin’ to do something different, and basically not caring about everybody’s opinions and wanting to follow what everybody else is doing. At the same time, I know when to be serious, but I know when to joke.

I’m a free agent so I’m probably gonna be signing a major deal that I’m gonna be announcing pretty soon, and a few good singles are coming out.

So for [Alexander Wang] to actually put me in a campaign, I was really honored. I’m excited to see how it comes out because I didn’t look at the photos on set; I like to just live in the moment and do what I do and let him and his people put their touch on it.

I like comfortable clothes. Most men in the world wear T-shirts every day and jeans. I wanted to always put my street style to the high fashion looks and just make it comfortable and make it look stylish.

The more real you get, the more unreal things get.

I’m a beast when it comes to anything. I believe in givin’ one-hundred-ten percent, anything I do.

God will never send anything your way you couldn’t handle.

You can do nice things for people all of the time and it’s never noticed but as soon as you make one mistake it’s never forgotten.

I’m happy that I’m learning and a lot of these fashion houses are willing to collaborate. I just want to put my swag to what they’re doing, because I like street style.

There was a really strong and intense bond with a lot of those early fans, some of whom became what we call lifers.

When fans start screaming when they see me it makes my heart smile.

I love my fans more than anything.

I know, every time I get somewhere, it’ll be strange. But if I understand correctly, I also have fans here and it reassures me.

The best thing about being on the road in general is just playing every single night in front of people that are genuinely fans of your music.

Pause so the fans can applause.

I know that everybody listens to me, but only my true fans will go and buy my album.

I wanna work with my girl Maliibu Miitch. I love Maliibu. I definitely wanna work with Beyonce, Rihanna. I’m a huge fan of Rihanna and Beyonce, so that’s like my dream collab.
