I'm always gonna be all over my CD the most, of course. My talent is my talent. I ain't really tripping off no ego; I just like to make good music with good people.

I think artists should be able to do different things whenever they want and I like the way I am. I'm like - I ain't gonna say the only street rapper, but the only mainstream, new, young street rapper there is right now and I'm doing well with it.

I leave my circle tight in keep my family close.

I've always been rapping before I was making money off of it. Before I made a profit, I had always been rapping.

I don't think I would change really anything about rap. Rap don't have no limits to it, and I like it like that.

My homies used to call me ' ions,' and at the time I didn't have no millions, so I ain't really want to be called 'Millions,' so I just shortened it down to . ' i,' my friends used to call me.

Jay-Z ain't a manager; he owns a management company. He been through this, he been through the game for a long time so he knows tactics in taking artists in certain directions we need to go in.
