I love seeing people react to my music. Its like a drug, one of the strongest drugs ever in my opinion. Not that I'’m doing drugs.. I just love that feeling. Putting out a feeling and having it really be the one is more addicting than anything in my life now.

It's a shame, she had me convinced that she could've been a dime. I guess I lost another one to the wintertime.

I aint sayin I'm requestin anyone that's perfect but I just need a woman that'll make it all worth it.

Everybody talks and everybody listens, and somehow the truth just always comes up missin.

What I set seems to never extinguish

I saw Nicki for the first time and, like, literally fell in love. She had this snap-back hat on that said 'Minaj.' She used to wear that every single day. She was like a theater student and she was so cold at rapping.

Just because I had a winner, it doesn't mean I'm gonna be like, "OK, I need a new 'Successful.'" That's silly. I just don't want anything to sound like anything else, which I hope is everybody's vision.
