If you think of something negative and you keep it in your head, you are going to actually live that. Now, if you think of something great and positive and joyful, you're going to actually live that. You've got to be careful what you put in your head. Basically, I'll call that: "Don't ever play yourself."

Key to more success is a clean heart and a clean face.

I didn't make the same song twice, but I definitely made the sequel to it, because everyone would come up to me in the streets saying, "Yo Khaled, make another 'I'm So Hood.' We love that record so much.

When I say "major key," I think being grateful is actually respecting yourself.

I think music isn't just a genre or sound. If it sounds good and makes you feel good it's a beautiful thing.

I don't have no favorite rock bands. I'm a fan of rock music though.

That's what I represent: love.
