“Most of my subject matter was all kind of, like, party stuff, jewelry and cars. It was really just, you know, shallow.”

I will keep on hurdling and keep on hustling.

That fame monster’s a fool, man. It really is.

Always watch your back – when I was fourteen I got a tattoo of an eye on the back of my neck, so I could say I was always watchin’ my back.

I go to the club just like a normal person. I might go to the studio, but I go everywhere like a normal person would.

I don’t give a damn how you feel about me, I sip lean pure codeine and I don’t give a damn what you say about me.

I did some things to some people that was downright evil. Is it karma coming back to me – so much drama.

I might be ugly, but my cars are real pretty.

If a man does not have the sauce, then he is lost. But the same man can be lost in the sauce.

I would collaborate with James Franco as a rapper any day.

Ain’t got no comparison and I ain’t being arrogant.

The way I think I should stay out of trouble is by stayin’ busy. With idle time comes a lot of biz, so the more my work load is heavy, I’ll have no time to get into any trouble or makin’ dis tracks or get into conversation about any other rappers.

I’ll like to tell all the people who wrote me and said a prayer for me, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Before I make an action, think about the consequences. … Any decision I make is a heavy decision.

I’m just a careful person around wheels and stuff like that. I try to be as cautious as I can, cause I lost friends to motorcycle accidents and car accidents. So I don’t ever play around anything like that.

Unfortunately I’ve been to jail a couple times. Anytime I come in it’s difficult to make music, write songs.

My own momma turned her back on me, and that’s my momma.

It was probably in third grade – I had a super fake, gold herringbone chain. I don’t remember if it was my mom’s or how I got it, but ever since then, I’ve loved chains.

I want to design jewelry for girls and guys, I’ma spread it out, but I’ma design, probably when I’m just designing furniture and buildings, I’ll probably being the jewelry thing, too.

Golden bracelets, diamonds and rare blue pearls. New gadgets and sparkling shoes, Things I do not own left languishing in the wooden drawer I do not have. I am too busy walking in parks admiring the city from afar and mesmerising dancing trees.

I think it’s tacky to have chains that go all the way down to your crotch.

Chains and stuff are nice, don’t get me wrong I love them and I wear chains, but I can do without it.

Some women collect gossip, the way other collect jewelry.

In both business and personal life, I’ve always found that travel inspires me more than anything else I do.

Jewelry is incredibly feminine, and reflects the grace and beauty of a women’s style like nothing else.
