You could be Top 5 on iTunes, but for people to buy an album, they've got to have a connection with an artist. Every time I bought someone's album, it was about the connection. I was loving everything, from their raps to their style. I wanted to meet them.

I just do whatever I feel. Whatever the beat makes me say, I do that and I run with that.

I'm not gone remix a record I don't got no love for.

Me and Kendrick [Lamar] have different types of music. He from a different coast; we ain't in the same lane.

I leave my circle tight in keep my family close.

Just build your brand from day one, man. Your brand is your name, basically. A lot of people don't know that they need to build their brand, your brand is what keeps you moving.

Big dreams turn into big things.
