“If you’re 30, 40 years old, you’re not getting listened to by minors. Like, Jay Z has some of the sickest lyrics ever, but I would never buy his CD, just because of my age and because of his age.”

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 always knew I could rap, and in a sense, I always rapped. And I’ve always behaved like a rapper. But I started to take it seriously when I recorded with the people of Brick when I started to receive some money.

It’s a pretty crazy thing in which I tried to make songs, real songs, not the quick stuff like on tape. A dose of Kendrick Lamar, a dose of J. Cole, because it’s got to be an album that goes in the club.

I never write. Never! I do not even remember if I can write.

I know I have this image but in reality, if you take all my records, I had to use five or six tracks.

I’m signed to Atlantic through 300 Entertainment Lyor Cohen’s label. That is my only contractual relationship.

Let me show you how to really really bring the summer back.

If you’re old, don’t try to change yourself, change your environment.

Old age is rather like another country. You will enjoy it more if you have prepared yourself before you go.

I don’t want to know I’m getting older. Then I’ll start to think about getting checkups and insurance. I don’t want that.

Language was invented to ask questions. Answers may be given by grunts and gestures, but questions must be spoken. Humanness came of age when man asked the first question.

Once you hit 40, you start reexamining the math of it all. I’ll trade wisdom for youth any day.

Once you hit 40, you start reexamining the math of it all. I’ll trade wisdom for youth any day.

Once you hit 40, you start reexamining the math of it all. I’ll trade wisdom for youth any day.

Momma gettin’ older feelin’ pains In her shoulder. I gotta stay focused and remain a little soldier.
