If you're a real hip-hop fan and a real street music fan, and you just love good music, you're gonna play it from top to bottom, and you're gonna get the concept, you're gonna get the story of my life, you're gonna be entertained, you're gonna dance you're gonna feel emotion, you're gonna get the truth, whether you like it or hate it.

If it wasn't for the music bein' my outlet, I'd probably be hustlin', I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to go and get a nine-to-five, I never finished high school or none of that.

I was never ignorant, as far as being experienced in classrooms and learning about different subjects and actually soaking it up.

Luck is just bein' prepared at all times, so when the door opens you're ready.

My mom is American, so I was raised in her household in my formative years.

All the smart money got they bets on me / And all the real niggas wish the best for me

If you 35, 28, or 30 years old, and you decide you're gonna pick up a rag and start bangin', and you can look yourself in the mirror and you still feel like you're a man? That's cool, do your thing.
