Notorious B.I.G. was one of my favorites. I started getting into hip-hop around the Bad Boy era.

I think it's tacky to have chains that go all the way down to your crotch.

I feel like Im able to relate to all races of people because when you learn to tap into the raw emotion of a person, that goes past color.

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

Sometimes I feel like putting on a blazer with just a T-shirt.

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

I feel like you should be confident in whatever you do, and a lot of my new music [that's coming out] I want people to judge more so than the music I've put out recently, because I feel like it's really changed a lot.
