No matter where you go, you are what you are playa.

Your future is ahead of you. Imagine the notion of the past fifteen years of your life being a blip in your story.

Hip-hop gave a generation a common ground that didn't require either race to lose anything; everyone gained.

They say a midget standing on a giant's shoulders can see much further than the giant. So I got the whole rap world on my shoulders, they trying to see further than I am.

A wise man told me don't argue with fools. Cause people from a distance can't tell who is who.

I really just like breaking down the barriers, whether it means doing an album with Linkin Park, an album with R. Kelly, or playing at the Brandenburg Gate with Bono.
