It's not like I just take the beat, rap on it and take it for what it is, I always have the producer send it to me, loop the track out, move some stuff around.

Either way we'll still be working [me and Sterling Simms] on something new and see where it goes from there.

Don't be distracted by doubters.

I try to be true to myself yet still at the same time look at comments and look at what the fans have to say and kind of put it in perspective. I'm never someone whose not open for opinion, I'm always just down to make it work and see how we can do things but at the end of the day I always want to make sure it represents me. It's really about just being humble and not selling yourself on being there already.

I've seen people who don't have deals get features from people that labels can't even get features from, because you gotta show face and be in-tune with these guys who still have that independent mind set as far how you hustle yourself. Because they only really care at the end of the day about the dollas.

In my position, I think the best thing I do is just keep girlfriend involved.

I almost feel like I'm still in a molding stage so the feedback and response not only inspires me but guides me in a certain direction as well.
