When I'm lovin' these hoes, there ain't no love involved.

The only two things that scare me are God and the IRS.

I apologize to the women I’ve hurt. I deeply regret what I did and know that it has forever impacted all of our lives.

My mother got pregnant with me at the age of fifteen. This was '64, and unheard of at that time.

I always loved the way music made me feel. I did sports at school and all, but when I got home, it was just music. Everybody in my neighborhood loved music. I could jump the back fence and be in the park where there were ghetto blasters everywhere.

It's entertaining to watch somebody break my music down or explain what he thinks I was thinking during the process of making these records. Because... he has no idea.

Everything that I do is for sound goals. It comes from my gut. When I'm sitting in the studio, a mix isn't done till I feel it in my gut.
