Hip-Hop isn't just music, it is also a spiritual movement of the blacks! You can't just call Hip-Hop a trend!

With the things that I love, I tried to put a couple seeds, a bunch of seeds in the ground and see what sprung up. Sometimes it was acting and sometimes it was music. But whatever it was I continued to plant.

I was very confused. I didn't understand the difference between rebellion against God and rebellion against the system that's not God.

I don't listen to a lot of music at all. I think that's very bizarre too, because it was such a comfort zone for me. But I don't know if I had my fill, but I don't listen to a lot of music, because I'm creating it.

It's more important to be righteous than to be right.

For a while, the genre seemed to be just about sex and crime. Rappers are storytellers; the stories don't need to be true!

Heart, Desire, and Intensity and those have been the three words I kind of latched onto.
