Reckless capitalism kills black people.

Focused. I'm a hustler. And my hustle is trying to figure out the best ways to do what I like without having to do much else.

It's difficult to really be an artist nowadays. People are just on another page. You have a society that needs you to say something, but they don't want to give you the environment to be able to be just a functioning, happy, normal person. It's like, the industry is at odds with you, the society is at odds with you. You start to live in this very confined box where it's like, It's "me" and "them."

I've always loved music and I love the language, which is a huge reason why I'm part of theater.

People don't like the music that's out now, that's on their radio stations, and they want to hear something different, but they're just the audience. You know, people will keep the TV on even if a show is on that they hate - because, unfortunately, they've been programmed to do that. [But] they are really looking for something that's gonna speak to the world that they're living in. That's what people are looking for, but they're not finding it.

To me, playing an instrument and singing, all of these different things are just as natural to me as rhyming.

I want to be necessary and do good works. I ain't here to waste nobody's time, because I don't want you to waste mine.
