“I got plenty. You can have all my light, my shine. I got plenty. All my boys here, we working being creative.”

I 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.

I like to practice being still and I feel like that promotes a lot of positivity.

I treat all my projects the same. They’re all time capsules of where I am at the time and what I’m thinking about.

There are a lot of people in this world that listen to wide ranges of music and there should never be a CERTAIN type of music that any artist should be confined to, in my opinion.

I think L.A. is L.A. I can go anywhere in the world and I’ll just say I’m from L.A. But when I’m there I gotta say I’m from Carson.

I’m not extra’d out. I got a cool little vinyl collection.

Everything is written in my mind, more so due to my lack of vision at this point. After years of vigorous writing, it was more of a challenge to do it without paper or sidekicks. I enjoy a good challenge.

Vancouver is dope, everybody got across the border today.

We’re all different and I respect my difference. I just try to be myself at all times. As long as I do that my music is always going to be different.

The universe bends to a still mind, peace be still.

I’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.

I say ‘cuz’ around Bloods, and I say ‘blood’ around Crips…I’m twisted. Got Mary, got Lucy, got Molly: that’s wifey, girlfriend and mistress.

I’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.

Battle rap is a culture. That’s boxing, it’s like boxing.

I have respect for the sport so I will contribute to the sport by encouraging artists .

King Of The Dot is huge; battle rap is huge right now. My first battle that I went to was King Of The Dot – shout out to Lush One.

There is plenty of peace in any home where the family doesn’t make the mistake of trying to get together.

Somebody like me who knows it firsthand and could relate… I had a best friend killed, plenty other friends killed. I been through it. I seen it.

Percy looked at his friends. “I’m getting tired of this guy’s shirt.” “Combat time?” Piper grabbed her horn of plenty. “I hate wonder bread,” Jason said. Together, they charged.

We live in the richest country in the world. There’s plenty and to spare for no man, woman, or child to be in want.

Soyinka’s Death at Dawn, Auden’s Musée des Beaux Arts, Stevie Smith’s Not Waving but Drowning and Wislawa Szymborska’s Some People come to mind immediately. But there are plenty, plenty more that I enjoy.

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options.

Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn’t stop to enjoy it.

I always write about war, love, death, and injustice. There’s plenty of that around, so I never run out of ideas.
