People can try to reinvent themselves. I don't think you can really change who you are, though, because who you are is pretty much where you came from and what you've done up to now.

They say music can alter moods and talk to you.

When I say I'll murder my baby's mother, maybe I wanted to but I didn't. Anybody who takes it literally is 10 times sicker than I am.

The emotions in a song - the anger, aggression - have got to be legitimate.

These times are so hard, and they're getting even harder.

That's why we seize the moment try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it.

Hip hop has always been braggin' and boasting and 'I'm better at you than this' and 'I'm better at you than that.'
