I've accomplished enough with the music that I haven't had to go out there and do other things to over-saturate.

I am who I am and I say what I think. I'm not putting a face on for the record.

The album requires a certain focus of mine that I can't really explain - let's just say it's all I can really do while I'm doing it.

I'm hatin' my reflection, I walk around the house tryin' to fight mirrors, I can't stand what I look like

I ain't looking back only forward.

There was a while when I was feeling like, 'Damn, if I'd just been born black, I would not have to go through all this'.

You don't get another chance, life is no Nintendo game.
