In my neighborhood... they view the police as someone who comes to take their loved ones away.

The more my fans know about my past, the more they'll be able to predict and understand some of the moves I make in the future.

When I nearly died it made me think – this can happen again any second. I better hurry and do what I want. I started to live like I never lived before. When the fear of death is gone, then nothing can bother you and nobody can stop you.

I was surrounded by too many people who felt that they had a strong sense of entitlement. That I owed them something.

True hustlers are prepared to get hustled and know when to change positions and move to something different and aren't afraid.

What we'd consider a positive role model, I think it's impossible to actually be a role model. You'll have your flaws or defects of character, regardless. You just speak like a positive role model, and that's just something that you're being conscious of, and you make the decision, "I want to say positive things."

Negative energy that comes at you in some form is energy that can be turned around - to defeat an opponent and lift you up.
