[Drizzy] ,it was dope. A great experience, especially with the topic he was talking about and to be... organic.I'm glad that it worked out the way it did where I got to tell my story, tell his story at the same time... and actually have it make sense as far as the whole concept of the album.

I'm Machiavelli's offspring, I'm the king of New York, king of the coast, one hand, I juggle them both.

I be off the slave ships, building pyramids, writing my own hieroglyphs

You really can't categorize my music, it's human music.

So next time you feel like your world is about to end, I hope you studied because He's testing your faith again.

People gonna be they own individuals and have they own worlds and I can't knock it.

There are so many people pulling at me at one time - some want the business, some want my love, some just want my support, just to be there or to acknowledge them the same way I used to. To be able to figure that out is an ongoing process, because there's always another show, another album, another moment that I don't want to miss. But I'm pacing myself. I hope the powers that be keep me on a straight course.
