You see somebody like me, as young as I was at the time, driving around the inner city of Newark, and to them [police] it doesn't make sense. I've been illegally searched [and had] my car illegally searched. [I've] been handcuffed for no reason. You get in enough of those situations.

Never played football, but I'm an athlete. I'm a competitor.

If somebody comes up and they're African American as Mike is, and they're extremely talented as Mike is, they say, "Oh, yeah, he's the next ..." I think that it points to disparity.

I've always wanted to direct and as I grow and I get older and I get older I just want to let that evolve.

I encourage first time filmmakers to be ambitious and take chances and risks, because you never know where your career is going to go.

As I grow and get older, mature a bit, and work on my big boy voice a little bit, I definitely want to direct.
