“I remember listening to Sugar Free and Jay Z and I never really understood some of the stuff they used to say until years later. Then you hear it again like, Damn that’s crazy. I just got what he’s talking about.”

The streets helps you a lot in music, cause it let’s you know that you can’t trust nobody and that nobody’s gonna wait for you. You can’t just sit there with dope in your pocket and think that people are gonna come to you. You gotta put the product out there.

I’m not anti single. I’m not one of them niggas that say “Aww record sales ain’t everything.” No. I wanna sell good. I would love a platinum record on radio and charts.

We’re living or dying. We’re already dead, the living dead. So do what you gotta do. Take care of your family, of yourself as a whole, and everything will be alright.

I think thats what most of us rappers do too often. We put too much information in some of our albums that could actually be on the next ones.

All these niggas that have good music have longevity.

One thing I’m big on is believing in giving an album time. I’ll say you’ll have to give an album three years before you can call it a classic. If you can’t listen to it three years later then it’s not really a classic.

I hate the business part of music. Music is just like the streets. There’s loyal and disloyal people, people saying one thing and then don’t do it.

I let my music do the talking. Ain’t no TV show gonna help me. Ain’t no hit single gon help me sell no records.

I never wanna have a time where I’m on the big lawn just sitting back smoking cigars and drinking lemonade. I wanna work forever. Until I die. I wanna die on the way to a show.

I smoke weed.It’s not an addiction. It’s something I wanna do. It’s not smart though. It’s not good for my body but I’m doing it. I’m not telling people to do it.

When you become an artist you’re working away from home for so much time. You really see what the use of time means to you once you’re an artist and you travel so much.

I didn’t spend money on nothin’. Besides my daughter, bucket hats, and weed.

Charisma, that’s my strong point. My personality was always good, but with music I had to grow into it. I grew into who I am now.

If I was with some other rappers who aren’t as polished, or I was the only rapper, I don’t think I would be where I’m, nor would I be rapping. They pushed me, we pushed each other on every record.

I’m a real stubborn person. I’m still humble, not too cocky, but I’m big headed. I know what I wanna do and I know how I wanna do it and I know what needs to be done.

People saying that you been robbed is almost better than winning a Grammy.

The world may be broken, but hope is not crazy.

There is something demoralizing about watching two people get more and more crazy about each other, especially when you are the only extra person in the room.

You’re right.I am crazy. But you know what else? I don’t give a fuck.

I’m not going to do anything crazy, but I want to do music that I’m passionate about.

Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.

In a crazy world, it’s only your insanity that will keep you sane.

Love made me crazy. If it doesn’t you ain’t doin it right.

I don’t want to be viewed as a womaniser or whatever. I don’t like going crazy crazy, I like having fun but it’s nice to wake up in your own bed, isn’t it?
