[My mother] worked at thrift stores and she didn't have a high school education. She sacrificed everything she had for me and my brothers. I never went without. She showed me that she could put food on the table, buy us Jordans, we had the best clothes and she worked two-three odd jobs.

I keep God first. He me to go out and act and be humble and keep it simple. God gave me this gift to bless the world. That's what I'm here to do.

I want families to come together, and on the corporate side, I want you to know that there are men out here who stand for righteousness.

I love doing movies that touch people's lives.

I dreamed of doing stuff like Will Smith and films on a big scale.

It's a choice if you want to change your life for the better. Life is cause and effect, it's all about choices. And what you do today can deter the next 30 years of your life. You gotta be careful, you gotta pick your friends wisely.

I did a film that was similar to that world, which was Brotherly Love, and the audience fell in love with [my character] June. So to be honest, I remembered what I did in that movie and studied that film and my mannerisms while shooting in Philly.
