Acting was something I always wanted to try. I just didn't know how, or I didn't know when the door was gonna be open for me to try it. But it finally opened up for me when I did 'Turn It Up', and ever since then I've been in love with doing films.

I ain't done nothing wrong, but love thy self. And harm other niggaz that wanna stop my health.

I love music; it's my passion.

I love to see my family together. That's what life is about. It's about family.

My role now is as an artist and as a mogul to inspire and give others opportunities.

Broke with nothing to live for and damn ready to die young. I'm the shadow behind the gun, look what I've become.

You know, whenever you're shooting a film there's different obstacles and challenges, whether it be from the makeup artist getting fired that you liked or whatever - the one that did the makeup the way you wanted. There's always stuff that changed, like the DP leaving the set, and there's a new guy in there, and the way he does lighting isn't the same as the last guy.
