My making it is a combination of grinding, grinding, grinding and being lucky enough to finally get a shot.

Why you got your ass on your shoulders?

My thinking is that if we're going to take from a culture, let's take from a culture that has exemplified success for thousands of years.

For me the best thing about winning an award is when the people cheer for your win. When you can see that the people are really happy that you are winning something, that's the most reward thing in the world.

I try to really understand every aspect of the most high; for me, the most high is Allah... I live my life by Islam.

You're gonna notice me when I come in. I'm gonna make a statement without opening my mouth, and when I leave, you're gonna remember that.

You could put me on any track. I support that one million percent. Whatever the track is, I'm going to smash it. Believe that.
