I'm forever learning and that's why I'm always able to create new styles and new dimensions of hip-hop.

I think the rebuilding of the city has to start with the spirit first. So the music, the vibe, the connection spiritually with the artists. Everybody out here is the main key. A lot of people are still in a lot of tough situations. My heart still goes out to the people of New Orleans.

Scientology is not a White religion. It is not just for White people

I have new music coming out. I'm working on some television shows. I still do a tremendous amount of concerts. I'm doing my restaurant. I got a club coming in New York. The restaurant is called Doug E. The club is called Fresh.

I've learned how to look at things and not judge them, but respect them and use it in a way that people understand that I respect them, show them love and respect their reality.

Everybody's doing it. When I'm performing and I do the Dougie, the fans lose their minds.

Hip-hop is supposed to uplift and create, to educate people on a larger level and to make a change.
