I attribute my ability to maintain cool to God, self-esteem, and knowing my purpose in life. It can't be based on anything material or external.

I think Lil Wayne is definitely a dope rapper.

I want a better world, I want love and harmony amongst people no matter what color you are, what race or what background you come from or sexual orientation.

Me being able to be acting and doing other things has opened me as an artist, and I think even more from a visual standpoint.

I started digging into parts of myself that I probably ignore and don't really get to express because Common is an artist that is conscious and is aware and is trying to put a positive energy to the world.

When you have style, it doesn't matter what other people are saying.

This is my inception, I'm writing my dreams.
