Too hard for MTV, not black enough for BET, just let me be.

You should never try to make a record and say it's for the radio, you should just make it, and then if it happens to be that, that's what it happens to be.

Never say can't, its better to try

I ain't a new artist, I'm good in the studio, I don't need somebody to hold my hand in the studio. I don't even really want them all over my album or anything like that.

I don't follow trends. I just do what I like and what I can.
