Young people are having a hard time with what's reality and what's fantasy these days...We created discussion. It wasn't to create controversy for sale's sake, but rather it was my obligation to use the medium for discussion. Nobody's discussing the grown-up topics; they are faking and fronting.

Every time something tries to create respect with a machine it crumbles!

I'm most passionate about, you know, making everybody understand that we should all have equal access on this earth.

For a long period of time, the media covered rap music and hip hop the same way they cover a lot of black people, people of color, you know, the bad news happens to be news. They used to have these little stupid colloquialisms that pop up like, "You know what? No news is bad news!" They trick the masses into thinking that any news is great for you. And I just think that's a piece of crap.

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.

My mother went to university, my father didn't. But they are very educated, very wise people. My father went to the military, so he's worldly.

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.
