I'm not going to run for office. I don't think that's the right move for me.

Some people, you know, should just go to college and do what they do and have a great job and not worry about trying to be famous as a singer. It's not for everyone.

When I write, I don't really focus on duets or anything like that, or whether I'm going to feature this or that rapper. I just focus on just making a great song and figure out the rest later.

It's really about making the best music you can make. It's really about working hard.

The fun part about collaborating is that you naturally just bounce off each other's energy and learn off each other.

I like songs that have like a little bit of quirkiness to them. What I like to do with songs, is kind of throw a little curveball in the lyrics or in the arrangement, to kind of give it a little twist to it.

I always felt that rap didn't cause crime; it just reflected it.
