There would have been no Beats deal without the Samsung deal. It showed the number one company the importance of connecting with culture.

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

Everyone's always telling you to be humble. When was the last time someone told you to be great?

We culture. Rap is the new rock 'n roll. We the rockstars. It's been like that for a minute, Hedi Slimane!

This album is moments that I haven't done before, like just my voice and drums. What people call a rant - but put it next to just a drumbeat, and it cuts to the level of, like, Run-D.M.C. or KRS-One.

I am not what I would consider truly a musician. I am an inventor. I am an innovator.

If everything I did failed - which it doesn't, it actually succeeds - just the fact that I'm willing to fail is an inspiration. People are so scared to lose that they don't even try. Like, one thing people can't say is that I'm not trying, and not I'm not trying my hardest, and I'm not trying to do the best way I know how.
