I always say, 'Man, the Creator is preparing me for something. He's keeping the sun on me for some reason. He's keeping me aligned with that generation.' Because I genuinely love people, I love hip-hop, and I love using it as a tool to communicate and to create a better vibration. Life is short. I guess I'm lined up for a reason.

There's nothing more special than talking in your community, and using your celebrity to uplift people and help them.

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

When I first started to beatbox on the microphone with the Get Fresh Crew, people were shocked. Some things are just supposed to happen and you have to roll with it.

I could still walk the street. I don't have to have no massive security.

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

I was probably like 13 years old, 14. And I used to walk home doing the beatbox from school. That's how I created it. There was no walkmans back then, no iPods, no CDs. There was just me. Back then there was the boom box.
