I remember a time when all my fans were crying and sad and going through hell. Now, we're trying to uplift each other and accept ourselves for who we are, even if nobody else does.

I blame my mother for nothing, but forgive her for everything.

I don't listen to people's opinions. I have people around me who I can trust, but most of all I listen to myself.

Just don't let the hype of what people are saying and how much they love you, y'know, just take the compliment and be thankful that people are complimenting you, but don't let it consume you; don't let your circumstances around you and the way people view you make you act a certain way.

I do consider myself part of black history.

God loves me and sent his son to die for me so I have to live to please him because he saved me when everyone abandoned me.

I'm a singer who thinks like a rapper.
