For my hustlers, here's some motivation: He who has begun is half done.

Don't ever give up on yourself. Keep pushing because the change of guards is what life's all about. [...] You've always got to stick with whatever you're into because you're day is going to come. You're day is destined. If you walk away from that, whether it be from fear or whether you're just giving up. [...] The greatest sin is fear and giving up.

You ni**az get me sick, wannabe soundin like you know my arithmetic... but we don't sound alike

If you really believe in yourself and your music that much, you're gonna do your thing, regardless what people say.

Life is short is what some niggaz said; not if you measure life - by how one lives and what he did.

I talk about life, and I make universal music with an American style - and that's what I do.

Some people work hard to be something that they're not, and I don't work at all, I'm just me. And that can bother anybody I'm not working nearly as hard as the other guys, and they don't like it.
