Who doesn't like money? I love money. Why not. My subject matter will change when I get to that point.

I love the rowdiness, I love how crazy it is during the day. There's a business about it that's great. There's never a dull moment, so it really inspires the music I write.

Money is important in the rap industry because you're always rapping to be bigger than the other person - bigger than who you're rapping to. A lot of my music is really, really, really humbled down. I don't have as much money as the average rapper, but I'm still good.

Who doesn't like money? I love money. Why not. My subject matter will change when I get to that point.

You're always going to miss your daily eating spots, your daily hangouts with your friends, family. I miss my family like crazy, all the time.

People thought I was a really raw rapper that hated everything - a really sour person - but really I'm just a good, all-around music-making kid and I'm really happy. That really, I feel, painted my image to a lot of people. My music now, some people get sour over it because it's really happy, it's poppy, but I'm just telling them that that image from way back then was me feeling uncomfortable and now I'm comfortable.
