I don't want people to see what I've been doing at Play Cloths for nine years and built from a streetwear independence standpoint through Japanese streetwear - I don't want that to be shifted into something else.

In God we trust, the game is all us. Til the sky calls or its flames on us.

I don't ever want anyone to hear my music and look at it as just gratuitous violence, or hustling and money-getting - I try to tell the perspective of the woman, the man, the mind, why.

I feel like people can feel when something is natural. I think they can tell.

The thing that I realize about fashion now, fashion and music, now versus back then is that you had to have fresh records and be fresh.

When I start a song, it's the first thought. It's the first thought and the first cadence, because that's the most natural.

The passion for sneakers has been there since day one, but I never held onto them. I never shrunkwrap them. It's always been about getting it, buying it, wearing it, showing it and moving on to the next one.
