I'm a mama's boy because everything I do is with respect to my mother. I won't do a movie or a video that would bring disrespect to my mother.

I feel good with who I am and what I made of myself.

I never try boost my career of the less fortunate somebody. Because if I gotta call and get press off of it - it ain't coming from my heart.

My mother is a strong, wonderful woman. I could never be anything she didn't want me to be.

Calvin Klein and Gloria Vanderbilt don't wear clothes with your name on it, so why should you wear their name?

I'm not outright seeking stuff. Because all I want to do is done. I bought my mother a nice house and pretty dress.

As a Christian when I watched the people in Katrina they lost everything. I'm not just speaking about the Black people, I'm talking about White, Chinese, Oriental, whoever lost stuff. My heart went out to 'em. I said as a Christian it would be a sin before God for me to wear my gold around people, flashing it in their face and they don't have nothing. So I said never again would I wear my gold, I want people to know I have a heart of gold and not the gold around my neck.
