The thing with me and endorsements is it's harder for me to get endorsements because of the simple fact that I want in.

Don't just give me an advance. I want a percentage.

If you look at any movement Hip Hop would be the most influential in the last maybe 15, 20 years.

You know, Steve Jobs came to the music industry and pitched them the idea and they kept shootin' him down and shootin' him down, and now he makes money off the whole music industry regardless. Which is a minor part of his empire, 'cause obviously it's gadgets that make him all of his money. But regardless, he has basically monopolized the music game.

One thing that's never gonna go, you know, go sour is good music.

I feel like I've been fighting in music and creating new ways and new opportunities to make things work even when people thought it wouldn't.

I don't wanna make hood music, I don't wanna make street music, I want to make world music, global music, international music.
