Redemption just means you just make a change in your life and you try to do right, versus what you were doing, which was wrong.

I'm competitive in that I would like to outsell my last record.

When you start to really travel and you get to these abstract like places in the world, you would see certain people's names. It seemed like we could go anywhere. Like when we went to Afghanistan, you'd see in the dressing room Run DMC's name. Certain rappers are like journey men.

Being cool is when you win, you don't get too happy; and when you lose, you don't get too mad.

I think men, growing up, you have to go through some form of hardship. You've got to harden the metal.

I like crime movies where the crime is so incredible that, attractive as it seems, you don't wanna do it because it's just too dangerous.

When you hit the wall, it's how fast you come back.
