Our household is built on love and respect. And we don't really let negative vibes stay too long. It's worked out. I got a great family, great kids.

I still enjoy doing music. I'm not going to stop doing it, and doing it the way that I feel it should be done.

I'm ready to run a studio. I'm ready to green light movies, and be in it to win it, you know? It's close. It'll happen.

Even though I have a nice house, nice family, the rest of my generation is still in South Central L.A. My cousins, my brothers, my sisters, they don't wanna move out. They don't want to and they don't have the means to sustain it. That's where my heart is and that's what I think about all the time.

I knew a dude whose entire check was going to his car. He didn't care. This is back when the Mustang 5.0 came out in, like, '82. Between paying the note and insurance, I think he had like $40 left. A lot of people knew people because of their car, and not them.

I don't do much cooking, but one of my favorite dishes to eat is my wife's macaroni and cheese.

My movies work because not many people in Hollywood are like me.
