I'm not just a rapper. I'm an entertainer. That's the difference.

I feel like my peers now are artists like Madonna and the Stones, Michael Jackson and Prince. These are people who were able to take their careers beyond the normal here-today-gone-tomorrow life span.

A man can make money but, money can't make a man.

Do it even when you don't feel like it. You need endurance to get through life... When you say you're going to do something and don't do it, you'll feel like you can't trust yourself. How about being able to trust the man in the mirror?

When I’m alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall, and in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call.

Nobody is perfect, but life is about choices.

That's one of the good things about music. You get to do it live, where you can touch the people and interact with them.
