I can't really attribute my success onscreen to any formula and suggest you "do this or that" to make it as an actor.

I've been around a lot longer than most rappers stay around. So I don't feel like, I haven't made too many career mistakes.

Rapping is talking and communicating, and that's always good.

I been all around the world and I haven't found a city that I'd rather be from or rather come back to than Los Angeles.

I believe every pencil has to be sharpened every now and then to stay sharp, or you dull out. So my records, I chose to speak on what black people do, what white people do, what women do, what men do.

I'm always the "less is more" guy when it comes to a scene. So I'ma be the one who will keep it grounded. Even if I let it go off and go crazy, I'm still the voice of keeping things grounded in reality.

There's never really been a real hood Christmas movie.
