My girls are very fashionable. They have a very good eye for marrying style and fashion.

I believed in myself, and I've always worked very, very hard as an artist, and I am an artist in every sense of the word.

Hip-hop is not something we do, it's something we live. It's the way we dress, the way we talk... everybody bobbing to the same beat. It's a culture, and you have to find your own place in that culture. Top 10 or Top 40 can't dictate that. They can only dictate what's marketable.

I think that when Riccardo Tisci wanted to bring more attention to the lack of African American presence on the runway, he also wanted to bring attention to the lack of a sensibility of African and Asian art.

I'm only in competition with my last level.

I knew it would happen. I knew I'd be No. 1. I'm a new artist; I don't know the rules. Nobody told me it wouldn't happen

Breathing becomes really easy when you're laughing. It kick starts that feeling of joy.
