“Anybody with a sense of humor is going to put on my album and laugh from beginning to end.”

What are friends ? Friends are people that you think are your friends but they really your enemies, with secret indentities.

I wanted to show the fans that we were inside the mind of a lyrical maniacal genius

Money is what makes a man act funny.

Love is evil, spell it backwards, I’ll show ya.

Sometimes I feel like rap music is almost the key to stopping racism.

Touring is hard on the body.

Ultimately, who you choose to be in a relationship with and what you do in your bedroom is your business.

Sometimes I wanna get on TV and just let loose.

Hello, Darkness, my old friend.

There’s no limit on how far I would go, no boundaries, no lengths.

If there’s not drama and negativity in my life, all my songs will be really wack and boring or something.

I’m standing up, I’mma face my demons, I’m manning up, I’mma hold my ground.

I think my first album opened a lot of doors for me to push the freedom of speech to the limit.

Lose yourself in the music, the moment – you own it.

Love is just a word, but you bring it definition.

There is no mountain I can’t climb. There’s no tower too high. No plane that I can’t learn how to fly.

Country fans need to support country music by buying albums and concert tickets for traditional artists or the music will just fade away. And that would be really sad.

I’m just going to do music and when I feel like I’ve gotten enough music to put an album together then that’s when I’m going to do it.

I feel as passionate as when I was 13 years old and just released my first album. I feel the same amount of adrenaline in my blood, and the same amount of curiosity as well. Curiosity about why I’m different.

I wouldn’t buy somebody’s album on a dare if they called him a musician’s musician. I don’t write to be a writer’s writer. I don’t want to be like the little-magazine writer.

I don’t think people realize how much work it takes to make an album.

I can still do clothing, movies, cartoons. I’mma get mine regardless. Whether I put an album out or not, I’m still gonna see a check.

We did an album one time called White Mansions, about the civil war, but it was written by a guy from England.

I was an artist, I was executive producer on my first album, so I’ve always had to manage both. I couldn’t get a record deal. It wasn’t by choice – I couldn’t get a record deal, so I had to figure it out.
