“I don’t want my kids saying, ‘My dad was a gangster, so I need to be a gangster. I would rather mine say, ‘My dad was a stunna, so I need to be a stunna.”

I feel close to Kanye West. We’re friends, this is not just a working relationship.

I’m the type of person to put myself in everybody else’s shoes.

Feeling rich this week

This is the industry that wants music, the rap industry. You have to be on deck all the time, but you do not have the time to do the album. It is an energy; it must be present in everyday life.

For a long time, I heard rap without paying attention, but it is still a way of life, even when you’re a kid.

The same image that I have of all the countries where I am supposed to go: it’s far, it’s different, it will be necessarily complicated, It’s another part of the world for me coming from the United States.

When you see them be successful, however small, you say to yourself, wow. And everything becomes possible. Never denigrate, to say we will not succeed.

Making it easier for them to count it up, real nigga.

I must have in stock 3000 songs you’ve never heard.

An album is a project with which you have to hit hard.

The best way to use the auto-tune is not to! And that’s what I do: I do not use auto-tune!

I spend more time with Gucci Mane or Birdman than 300, but all this is just family. Who cares about contracts?

It was Kanye West who spoke, and then we met and recorded some songs. After, you know what it is: we all bump like crazy.

You must not worry about leaks or pieces stolen on your computer. Just make songs, you gotta make music, keep stuff out. You may not know rap, but that’s how it works.

I know that everybody listens to me, but only my true fans will go and buy my album.

Use to get fly, but now I get pelican.

I’m sometimes scared of everything that has happened to us. We didn’t think Desilu Productions would grow so big. We merely wanted to be together and have two children.

Children are our future we must take care of them with maximum effort.

The interesting thing with child actors is that kids are natural actors. They’re wonderful actors, and most kids are acting all the time. They’re imagining they’re out in the yard playing. They’re imagining that things happened, and they can get very vivid.

My stepdad provided me with an amazing childhood. I played outside like a normal kid, I rode my bike, I walked to school, but the happiest times were when I was acting.

Crimes against children are the most heinous crime. That, for me, would be a reason for capital punishment because children are innocent and need the guidance of an adult society.

I’ve never understood women who, because of their children, pose as victims and don’t allow themselves any other activities.

Children are our future we must take care of them with maximum effort.

Participating in a gun buy-back program because you think that criminals have too many guns is like having yourself castrated because you think your neighbors have too many kids.
