Don't anoint me when you can anoint yourself.

I grew up as a sports fan, and I know that a hall of fame is very different than an award for being the best of the year. It's a nod to the longevity of our accomplishment.

It's not about what you get out but what you put into hip hop as a genre.

I've signed with major labels, and I haven't had any control over the money.

I think right about now we have to beware of marketed Malcolms and Martins. Real people do real things.

If you want to be an artist, truly try to write what you believe, and if you write when you don't believe then you should try to become an actor.

Try to do your best to look people in the eye and talk to them without a gadget being in between you all the time.
