“That fame monster’s a fool, man. It really is.”

Don’t never drop your head. Don’t never feel like you counted out.

I learned that everybody is not your friend. You have to watch who you associate with and surround yourself with positive things and people who want to do something positive.

I feel like if I show people how good I’m doing with myself, then it’ll bring people to want me to manage them as well.

I’m not a fan of anybody music who I feel like a sucka. I don’t listen to you. They play you in the club, you can have the #1 jam, but if I know your character, how can I listen to your music?

I ball all through the winter and I stunt all through the summer.

Most of my subject matter was all kind of, like, party stuff, jewelry and cars. It was really just, you know, shallow.

Me personally, I come from very, very humble beginnings – little, small town in Alabama, you know, staying at my granddaddy house. We really didn’t have nothing.

I will keep on hurdling and keep on hustling.

Always watch your back – when I was fourteen I got a tattoo of an eye on the back of my neck, so I could say I was always watchin’ my back.

I go to the club just like a normal person. I might go to the studio, but I go everywhere like a normal person would.

I don’t give a damn how you feel about me, I sip lean pure codeine and I don’t give a damn what you say about me.

I did some things to some people that was downright evil. Is it karma coming back to me – so much drama.

I might be ugly, but my cars are real pretty.

If a man does not have the sauce, then he is lost. But the same man can be lost in the sauce.

I would collaborate with James Franco as a rapper any day.

Ain’t got no comparison and I ain’t being arrogant.

I just knew that was what I wanted to do. I was going to perform as a singer; I was going to perform as a dancer, and I was, you know, going to do movies and be an actress. I was going to do it or die trying. That’s what my life was.

Fame is a fickle food upon a shifting plate.

Sometimes I just want to be left alone and be a normal kid for, like, five minutes. That’s tough when the paparazzi are chasing you.

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.

I do not like the man who squanders life for fame; give me the man who living makes a name.

Everybody think they’re famous when they get 100,000 followers on Instagram and 5,000 on Twitter.

When you start to become famous, you can hop into any kind of field just because of the name you have and the credentials you have.

Of course, I follow Bollywood. In fact, it’s widely followed in Brazil.
