You can't get someone to like something they aren't feeling. After you press play, there isn't anything you can do.

Honestly, I don't feel pressure to live up to anything I've done because I tend to not listen to my work once a year passes.

I've been able to tour because of my music and I've learned a lot about myself while on the road. I think some of the imagery of my writing are snapshots of where I've been and my feelings about the world.

People are very adamant about maintaining a certain sound or a certain era, like, "There were three years of rap that were great, so let's just keep doing that." The genre itself is just stuck in place. It's been treading water for a while.

The thing about the state of hip-hop is that people are too concerned. I don't think that there's a problem with being too concerned about videogames, especially for me, because I'm not in the industry. I'm just a consumer. But hip-hop is constantly like, "What are you doing for the scene?"

You can't get someone to like something they aren't feeling. After you press play, there isn't anything you can do.

The only bridge I've ever burned along this legacy I dance is the one that linked the cities of prosperity and chance.
