When you're rapping, you do have to perform to a certain degree, but not every rapper is necessarily a gifted actor.

I learned you really do have to make sure you enjoy life.

The more you push the budgets up, the more you make records cost $20, the more you make records last 4 and 5 minutes on the radio.

I'm not allowed to get a big head, I've still got to do the simple things in life.

I write pretty often. I have a home studio. Music is what I do for fun. I never get tired of it, so to take a break from [TV and movies], I would go make some music.

Having a belief in God, being able to find joy, despite your circumstances or put yourself outside of yourself, and stop looking inwards and look outwards a little bit really helps to carry through tough times. Giving makes you feel better.

[when I'm not working I like to] listen to music, watch something really funny like South Park.
