“I mean, I’m a fan of Eminem. I’m a fan first and foremost. Maybe before I wouldn’t have challenged him, but I’m contemplating it now.”

Every boss started as a worker.

I may not be a role model, but I most definitely could be motivation for a lot of people in the hoods.

I won’t sing to you like Chris and Ne-Yo, but I’m fresher than a stick of deo.

I like to write music for fun. That’s my hustle, my grind, my means of stayin’ alive, and it’s also my recreation, too.

I didn’t understand that you could go to jail for the rest of your life for selling cocaine. I thought life sentences were for murderers. I didn’t know that you could get it for supplying something to someone that they asked you for.

You know how in football, guys throw defenses, and the defense throws you a look, but the look is not really what it is – it’s only made to fool you. It’s the same thing with drugs. The drug is only an illusion to draw you in.

All I ever wanted was to make scrilla Have a recording session with J Dilla.

You gotta judge a man by his principles.

He knockin’ on the door, let the devil in.

These haters can’t hold me back.

At one time, due to the reluctance of cult groups to allow members to dialogue with their families and professionals about their involvement (or even to allow families access to a loved one) -“involuntary deprogramming” became the choice of some families as a last resort.

Being dead broke is the Root of all Evil.

I’m very versatile and there’s nothing I really regret in my life. I’m excited with who I am and I’m just going to keep riding the wave.

When families observe a later, deeper stage of cult involvement they may find it necessary to consider the involvement of a professional such as myself in an intervention effort.

Forget yesterday, live for today. Tomorrow will take care of itself.

I ain’t makin’ music for the media. I make music for the people in the streets – that want a street level of entertainment. I’m makin’ music because I have the streets to feed.

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.

If anyone can figure out how to balance my celebrity and my dual careers in music and film, it’s me. I don’t feel frightened; I feel challenged.

Challenges come so we can grow and be prepared for things we are not equipped to handle now.

Welcome the challenges. Look for the opportunities in every situation to learn and grow in wisdom.

People don’t mind being challenged to do better if they know the request is coming from a caring heart.

When I say I want to become a legend, some people say it’s pretentious. For me, it’s a challenge. My desire, a dream. I’m not saying I’ll get there, but it’s what I want.

I challenge you to be the best you can be! I challenge you to behave in ways you’ve never behaved.

This year will have more challenges to come. Our senses of togetherness & bravery is what will make the difference.
