I write my own lyrics completely on my own. Sometimes I have people helping me with concepts or like choruses and stuff sometimes, but mostly I write all my own songs by myself, especially the verses and a lot of the choruses.

I just remember I wanted to make my own dynasty and not keep following trends. I wanted to make my own.

I wanted to make the soundtrack of people's lives.

I work really hard - that doesn't mean I deserve anything, but it's really cool to see the positive reaction people give to something you worked so hard on. It's one of the best feelings.

When I graduated from high school, the teacher said I was throwing my life away following music.

Feeling more comfortable onstage is something I've worked on - it's really about just being the artist I am.

Everything I wanted to do was big. I feel like my music is big, the mark I'ma leave in this world is big, so I feel like that's the perfect name.
