Some days I feel like I'm an atheist. Most days, I feel like an agnostic. On a very rare day, I feel like I'm a believer in something.

If you love something, give it away...

Hip-hop music has done a very good job of maintaining the political context, where they stand and not giving a sh-t what people think.

I think there's a danger, for me at least, in retreating and going inward and depression. I have to stay diligent against that tendency.

I definitely think religion is responsible for a lot of the evils of the world. I mean that's not really in debate. But at the same time, I think whatever gets you through the day, whatever helps you make sense of life I'm not gonna begrudge my grandmother with her rosary beads. It works for them. And at the end of the day, I don't claim to know the answer to anything.

Popular music is all about traveling at the speed of you and elevating the individual as the highest thing in the world.
