When I was six, God was a white man with a big beard riding on a white cloud. That's the image television pumps.

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.

I want to do more drama. Comedy is the path of least resistance for my company. People know we can do them. People know they get a good response. People want to make them. Who am I to push up against that?

I think hip-hop has changed. When I first came out, hip-hop was more of a kind of way to learn about new places, new things. What are kids doing on the East coast, what are kids doing here. Then it left that and is like a party mode. I think it's going back to people wanting to get messages and wanting to learn things from the music.

Don't worry about being a star, worry about doing good work, and all that will come to you.

There's nothing wrong with starting off in a box, but you got to have a plan to come out that box.

I identify with the bottom of the pyramid, because, outside of having money, I am at the bottom of the pyramid.
