Creative output, you know, is just pain. I'm going to be cliché for a minute and say that great art comes from pain.

I don't want to do rap that makes people feel bad.

Throw your diamonds in the sky if you feel the vibe

I'm a champion, so I turn tragedy to triumph.

Know your worth! People always act like they're doing more for you than you're doing for them.

I didn't want to play it boring and safe. I also didn't want to innovate too much. Second albums, man, they're even scarier than first ones.

My goal, if I was going to do art, fine art, would have been to become Picasso or greater. That always sounds so funny to people, comparing yourself to someone in the past that has done so much, and in your life you’re not even allowed to think that you can do as much. That’s a mentality that suppresses humanity.
