I want to say a little something that's long overdue, the disrespect to women has got to be through. To all the mothers and the sisters and the wives and friends, I wanna offer my love and respect till the end.

We just play whatever we're into. For a while there, we weren't listening to too much rap stuff, 'cause there wasn't anything interesting.

That's the strange thing about making a record. You can be in one mood for an hour, put it on a record, and you're remembered that way.

People need to be more aware of how they're affecting people.

It feels good to play a little music / Tears running down my face 'cause I love to do it

Music is going to go in some direction that is entirely inconceivable now. If someone had been asked twenty years ago what direction they thought music was going in, they wouldn't have said sampling.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event may my image or name or any music or any artistic property created by me be used for advertising purposes.
