You never know until a song comes out and becomes what it becomes, obviously you can't predict how the masses will react.

I think rappers are the fall guy because some of us don't have the wits to point the finger back. The thing is when you take a whole generation and whip them out, string the mothers out and put the fathers in jail - the reason I know respect is because my father is the mediator between me and my grandfather. I'm the mediator between my son and my father because I'm old enough to understand where my father is coming from and young enough to understand what my kid is trying to do. When you whip out the mediator the kids run wild and the old people are scared of them.

I'm a sucker for corn rows and manicured toes.

If we dont heal our own hood, who will?

Nobody living average, everybody jang-a-lang. Nobody living savage, everybody got change.

I smoke herb, but what's the harm it that?

I think some of my inspiration came from just being around music. My family was into music. My uncle had his own band and my father use to sing in my uncle's band. If you want to go to the music influences we could be here all day. That's everybody from Michael Jackson all the way up to people in the game now that inspire me.
