A lot of artists just put on the people they can make money off of.

I try to only work with people whose craft I believe in.

I'm always looking for good music.

I don't want to be in the spotlight so bad that I'm going to sell my soul, or sell my creativity short.

It's cool to have a personal relationship with someone who's your idol. Someone whose music you used to constantly listen to, when you were hoping you could make it one day.

I'm not going to go in and get some hooks from some niggas who don't know me, or know what I'm about.

I feel like I kind of got my own lane, but I think if you mix T.I., Andre3000, Hov and Kanye you kinda get who I am. And I'm a huge fan of all of those artists, I grew up on a little bit of all them.
