It's an accompaniment to life. It's not something that I do to rap; I smoke when I open my eyes...I don't know any other feeling.

I would say I started rapping because my friends were doin it.

Shoot eagles on the Jack Nicklaus course, Porsche with the triple exhaust, Seats soft like a midget's cough.

I love to cook a meal for the so-called holidays. You always need the turkey. I like making a good BBQ brisket as well.

Billy Joel is an incredible musician. He just feels like one of the guys, you know. I grew up listening to his music.

I just do whatever I do, and put it out there without tryin to cater to anybody. If you like it, you like it.

As far as rap, I was more of a Mobb Deep guy rather than a Tribe guy.
