Real religion is no religion at all.

I had to confront my fears and master my every demonic thought about inferiority, insecurity, or the fear of being black, young, and gifted in this Western culture.

It's silly when girls sell their souls because it's in.

I sit here before you trying to figure out how to pay a tax debt? If that's not like enough to slavery, I don't know.

Over-commercialization and its resulting restrictions and limitations can be very damaging and distorting to the inherent nature of the individual. I did not deliberately abandon my fans, nor did I deliberately abandon any responsibilities.

To those supporters who were told that I abandoned them, that is untrue. I abandoned greed, corruption, and compromise, never you, and never the artistic gifts and abilities that sustained me.

Our first album was a stupid mistake by the record company. They tried to sell us as an alternative act. A big mistake!
