I was listening to Jimi Hendrix; I just admire his artistry and creativity as an artist.

Dreams don't have deadlines. Believe in yourself.

As a black man, my hope is that I can touch more and more people all over the world of different races and different colours.

All I ever wanted, all I ever needed was a father.

What I like to do is just make good music, good movies, hopefully perform a good show full of energy and just have some fun.

You have to always continue to strive no matter how hard things get, no matter how troubled you feel. No matter how tough things get, no matter how many times you lose, you keep trying to win.

I've never been the battle guy that people perceive me as. I don't even want to battle. I take it to the people, man. I say what I got to say. You know what I'm saying? I'm like the guy that has the gun and shoots you when you try to rob him, you know? I don't really pull out the inches and try to shoot the brothers.
