All my life I've been dealing with my race because of where I grew up [Detroit] and being in the rap game. I'm at a boiling point...Anybody who pulls the race card is getting it right back in their face.

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

Nuts they go, macadamia they go so ballistic, whoa.

I can never turn my back on a city that made me.

I don't care if you're black, white, straight, bisexual, gay, lesbian, short, tall, fat, skinny, rich or poor. If you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. Simple as that.

It was a slow process. You gotta remember I hadn't recorded a song sober in seven years. So it took me awhile to even feel like I could record a song sober.

I'm standing on my Monopoly board that means I'm on top of my game
