My rap comes from a sociological standpoint rather than picking a particular side or dogma or ideology. I just want people to be free to do what they want, as long as they don't harm others.

My family have always supported my rap - and they know I love them when I rap about them - but I'm just Michael Jackson to them. They care more about me. I express my love for them in a much more personal way on this record. It's about our conversations; my fear, and their advice. I know my sisters are gonna hear "Willie Burke Sherwood", which is named for my grandfather, and cry. I used to do music for me, because my ego needed it, but now I'm doing music for my family and friends who helped me become a rapper.

The futile and exhausting existence of a purgatory-like law enforcement system.

The older I get, the more of an anarchist I become, and I don't mean in a punk rock way.

I learned to fly planes at fifteen years old because one of my teachers thought I'd be a better pilot than rapper.

I feel worn down as a human being who has to constantly justify their existence to other human beings because I'm a minority

I don't trust the church or the government, and anything the church or the government tells me I assume to be a lie or a conspiracy, until proven true.
