“I never knew anything about rapping.”

I’m changing every day as far as this rap thing. I’m learning new things. I’m getting bigger by the day.

I feel like I wrote that. If I go in there and fix it, it’s almost like something I wrote.

The first project, I made 16 songs and put 12 of them on the mixtape.

My story is going to be completely different than someone else’s story in terms of hard work.

I know I can’t rap forever, but I know as long as I got a label or something I can get money forever.

Gunna was the second person I ever made a song with.

I just got an ear for the kind of things I like.

My ultimate goal is my son, and a lot of other kids, to not have to grow up the way I grew up. I just give them a different outlook on something.

I like music, I listened to all rappers; people like Jeezy, Yo Gotti, T.I.

Like people coming up to me like, ‘Nobody ever told you that you look like Lil Baby?’ But I’ll be like, nah. Or like, somebody told me that. I’ll never just say, it’s me.

I’ve been through all the bad parts of the streets.

I used to always be in Atlanta, chilling. I didn’t really have as much to do. So I would gamble as a hobby. Now I’d rather go into the studio and try to make me a hit.

I don’t really have a writing process. I don’t write at all but, honestly, I feel like it’s a modern-day writing because everything is technology and if I go in there and freestyle and I keep it.

If you’re a young black dude from the hood you want to come through the hood in a car that makes a lot of noise.

Whether I’m at the gas station or I be at the store, I be there by myself. I be regular.

I got a boss mentality.

I don’t take anything personal. I just have a certain file in my head, so Earthlings must be careful with what they say.

I’m a cop, and cops talk. They called me the day he did it, but did you ever hear me say anything about it? I played ball, because that’s how I am. I’m true.

Madonna wasn’t an acrobat or anything, but the sex was good. I could tell she liked it.

I don’t feel anything when I watch Shaquille O’Neal play. I don’t feel anything coming off him.

Growing up, I never really felt like anything was my own. I moved a lot, and I never belonged anywhere.

Poor people will do almost anything to avoid problems. They see a challenge and they run…the secret to success, my friends, is not to try to avoid or get rid of or shrink from your problems; the secret is to grow yourself so that you are bigger than your problems.

I don’t have any feeling of accomplishment about anything unless there’s a lot of risk to it.

Day and night she had drudged and struggled and thrown her soul into her work, and there was not much of her left over for anything else.
