Pretty soon I think you'll have Republicans, Democrats and Hip Hop as a party.

I started doing shows in places that I couldn't pronounce, didn't know existed, and I've seen people that didn't speak English or Spanish rapping to every lyric and singing to every hook. I said, "This is the type of music that I want to do."

You cant get much whiter than me.

As far as my single selections, over the years it's been a very essential part of my survival tactic, but I have no problem being able to jump on records with whoever people think is the rawest rapper in the game or number one or King or whatever they wanna name themselves, to be honest with you. It doesn't affect me, 'cause that's what I come from; I'm comfortable in that zone. But I don't wanna make hood music, I don't wanna make street music, I want to make world music, global music, international music.

I'm just here to open up doors for all these other cats out here that are trying to do the same thing really.

I'm not a Reggaeton artist and I'm not a Crunk artist either.

I make music with no boundaries.
