I'm never too nervous about releasing music. I like to see what the people think because it helps me make myself better as an artist for them.

Really ain't one to boast, but I'm doing better than most

What doesn’t kill me can only make me stronger

The videos are sometimes the only way for people across the country and different places to see and hear the music. They may not get the same radio stations or they don't get the same TV channels, they don't have the same MTV that plays the same music. People will use to the Internet and that's why YouTube and stuff like that is so important.

I haven't stopped making music since I started at 16 and throughout the years I made a lot of different connections and had a lot of opportunities.

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.

It just inspires me to release an album and know that I can work on a core fanbase. The grind: Just make good music and it translates.
