The greatest threat of harm doesn't come from any bomb

I try to make music that's really real. I've always liked music that makes me feel something. I'm not a brain first, music second person.

Blind in the eye, so I see you with my heart

Strategies are great, business models are great, but the reality is your music has to mean something to people.

If you don't believe inside yourself that you can learn a lot, nobody's ever going to do that for you. Nobody's ever gonna give you self drive. Nobody's ever gonna give you self esteem. Nobody's ever gonna give you your self worth. You have to set it for yourself.

I would just like to see hip-hop journalism in general take a step up and match the artistry. There have been great writers in music who are the caliber of artist as a writer as the people that they're covering.

The kids now are more productive than we ever were; they're a lot more prolific and productive in the sense that they have to have music out all the time.
