I don’t even really understand that concept of someone being ‘smart’ or someone else being ‘smarter.’ I think that except for the obvious special cases, we’re all equal.

AB SOULI’m just a demon that means well. Freelance for God, but do the work of Satan.
AB SOULI’ve been to Vancouver every year for the last four years, since 2011 when I came out with Murs.
AB SOULI dunno, around 11th grade, 12th grade I was just like “yeah. This is something I want to do”. I was always known; I was always the rapper.
AB SOULNot even battling but just really known for rapping. Like I had songs up on Soundclick first, take it back.
AB SOULNo religion, I’m just so explicit, I coexist in places you would never know existed.
AB SOUL[Positive mental attitude] is a practice, you gotta practice. I practice being still.
AB SOULI’ve been following battle rap for a long time. Me and Daylyt are real cool. We battled on my album, he’s on my album. We did a one round battle on my album and that was just me capturing These Days.
AB SOULI really enjoy doing music because it’s a challenge to try to reach that frequency and connect with people and get them tuned to what you’re talking about. I definitely respect and enjoy that challenge.
AB SOULI’ve been watching battle rap since that time period when Cassidy was hot, Murda Mook and Lux first when at it. That was a very pivotal time in hip-hop.
AB SOULI’m really focused on These Days and I’m trying to take it as far as I can – I feel like it’s a strong body of work. I just want to give it the ame kind of attention I give all my projects.
AB SOUL106 & Park, Freestyle Friday, that was real pivotal. I feel like he has the right to do that, he comes from that era so he has the right to do that.
AB SOULPeople always known me for rappin’. So I guess that maybe just hindered me, like “oh well, I mid-as-well go long term with it.”
AB SOULHonestly I think it was gradual from the first time I came. It’s been a gradual thing as far as audience and response wise. I feel like I was conditioned for this type of impact.
AB SOULMy main concern is making the connection with my listeners and making records that the whole world can sing. That’s what makes me happy.
AB SOULVancouver is dope, everybody got across the border today.
