People do look up to me and it makes me feel good. I made it out of a bad situation and I didn't mind bettering myself and I think that is what people respect. Most people go backwards but I was able to look at the big picture.

If I can go through what I've been through and do a television show with my son and then be a boy from the hood making records for the people I make records for, that's reality.

Let's be honest. We don't take rap serious the way other cultures take rock-n-roll, they take country. They artists are being loved.

I go to church strapped with a 45 glock.

I think you've got good people and bad people in everything you do. If you start making a big deal of it, then it's a problem. It's like in life. We've got bad doctors and lawyers. We've got bad priests! We don't target every priest and say he's bad. You have to go to church and you have to go see some doctors. Some people have to be good.

I think everybody has a good and bad side.

Most of the people don't get their just due until they ain't here no more.
