It's like this, by not giving my album a classic rating, you diminish your magazine's credibility. And that's real.

I know I got to be right now Cause I can't get much wronger

Visiting my mind is like visiting the Hermès factory. Sh*t is real.

I woke up early this mornin' with a new state of mind/ A creative way to rhyme without usin' knives and guns

If I were to write my title like going through the airport and you have to put down what you do? I would literally write ‘creative genius’.

I am in the lineage of Gil Scott-Heron, great activist-type artists. But I'm also in the lineage of a Miles Davis - you know, that liked nice things also.

My goal, if I was going to do art, fine art, would have been to become Picasso or greater.
