I collaborate with people because their music talk to me as much as mine talk to them.

We cannot hurt ourselves just for the sake of it. When you hurt somebody you hurt yourself. Down the line, the ripple of it comes back to you.

It doesn't matter what challenge you face, the most important thing is, when you fall, how you rise and how high you want to go, where you want to go from that rise on.

You cannot be defined by your skin color, where you come from. The world is yours, embrace it.

I want to look at myself in the mirror at the end of my life and say I've done my share and I'm proud of what I've done.

Your color doesn't define your brain nor your soul. You can stand next to any human being and challenge that person as long as you use your brain.

Music for me has been my breath, my backbone since I was a little kid. Anything that comes to my life, hard time or good time, I always find comfort in music.
