I don't pay attention to sales because it's not about that for me. It's about the music. Music is all I have.

Any artist that's as serious about making music as I am, I'm cool with that. But if you tellin' me, "Man, send me a verse and I'ma send you a verse." No. That's not collaborating. We don't know each other and I'm serous about this music.

I've always stood on my own two. I don't need a team. I don't do the entourage thing, 30 people. I don't do that. That's just not me.

I don't have a religion. I ain't nothing wrong with church as long as they selling chicken. Cause I read the Quran, I read the Kabalah, I read the Bible. They all got the same three basic principles: Love God, love your neighbor as yourself, and...As far as me being, I live by those principles.

Say what you doin and not what you finna do

I know my voice is very distinctive because in a room of 100 people, my voice is always picked out.

I love God, I love everybody else around me as myself, and I love my enemy.
