I don't think you can be a good musician if you just listen to rap, or just the [type of music] you do. You gotta be open to other ideas.

I'm a real gangster rapper and I'm a rapper. I just think my music takes different directions. I don't think you can pigeon hole me in one genre. I'm probably the most versatile in the game, period.

Everything I do is going to be gangsta rap, street based, street oriented... I'm from Gary, Indiana, and everybody's damn near at the poverty level.

Most of my show is just improvisation. It goes with the energy of the crowd.

I study my competition for at least an hour a day. I get on the internet, look at what they doing, then I look at ways to defeat them.

I don't have no... I love Lil Wayne. I grew up on the Hot Boys.
