“I remember when I fell from my first bike: There were no ‘Are you okays?’ and rarely ‘Are you alrights?’ Just dirt in my pockets, handful of gravel… That’s when I realized that getting up is only half the battle.”

I’m still trying to do me and just make good music and quality music, music that you can feel.

Obama cool, but he ain’t sending me no free checks

I started making my own beats because I just couldn’t afford to pay for the other ones.

My conversations with God always seem leave him speechless.

I listened to a lot of old school, golden era music. It gave me a lot of insight on how to rap and give my all.

Too much shine, can dull the soul

There ain’t no time to be wasted, the world is going under… Nowadays, can’t tell Fall from Spring, and Winter from Summer.

If I abuse myself daily, who can I love?

Thank God for the day. Thank God for the morning. Won’t take this here for granted; no, good Lord, I gots to get on it.

They love the fact you made it, but hate the fact you got it. The stairway to heaven is packed…I’m in the lobby. Too scared to go to sleep, cause most times I often doubt my dreams.

The more you walk with God, the harder it is to scrape your knee

Looking back on all the things I went through to get here. It was all worth it. It’s a blessing that I can write about it all.

Rap is rhythm and poetry. Hip-hop is storytelling and poetry as well.

At some point in every person’s life, you will need an assisted medical device – whether it’s your glasses, your contacts, or as you age and you have a hip replacement or a knee replacement or a pacemaker. The prosthetic generation is all around us.

Before she knew it was candles, did she think she’d done it herself? With the amazing turns of her hips.

If they think that there’s a lot of racism going on then there’s another Hip Hop artist who’s gonna come out and speak their mind.

Well, a lot of people within government and big business are nervous of Hip Hop and Hip Hop artists, because they speak their minds. They talk about what they see and what they feel and what they know. They reflect what’s around them.

A lot of times, when people say hip-hop, they don’t know what they’re talking about. They just think of the rappers.

We gotta understand that Hip Hop is now universal. Hip Hop is not East coast or West coast.

De La Soul, from the soul, black medallions, no gold.
