Art is supposed to spark conversation and make people think.

I take my spoken-word stuff extremely seriously because I feel like that's true writing, true lyricism.

I think it takes a strong man to be in a relationship with a strong woman. A lot of people hear the word "diva" and think of it as a negative. I see it as a positive. I want somebody who knows what they want out of life and isn't afraid to show it.

One thing about being a stand-up is it's a one-man show. You gotta do everything. You're the producer, writer, director, and the actor. You just gotta be out there and perform and give your all. It's such an honest form of art that it just taught me so much, and it kind of prepared me for manhood at an early age.

I'm a musician. I play instruments. I dabble in the hip-hop field. That doesn't take vocal ability necessarily.

Clearly, everybody knows I can rap; I can freestyle all day.

I am always the first to say that fame and entertainment is one of the best and easiest occupations to ever have, but one must know how to navigate through the matrix or you may find yourself in a very dark hole.
