When you hold on to anger and unforgiveness, you can't move forward.

The streets respect me because I kept it real with me. You gotta be real with yourself, and the streets recognize game.

When you tell your truth, you are coming from a real place, so you are automatically a leader.

You have to have a plan. Everything has to be planned. For me, I start with the title of my album, before I even start with the songs. I write down different things that I want album to say, and then the songs come from the different words.

It's up to us to choose whether we win or lose...and I choose to win.

I don't think I'll do foster care or adopt, to be quite honest.

So as long as I'm a human being and I'm not perfect, I'm able to say I'm having some growing pains. Because in order to sustain where you are once you made such a breakthrough that everyone is looking at you, now everyone is like, 'Ooh, is she gonna make a mistake?' Yes, I'm going to make a mistake. Yes, I'm still gonna do things.
