I feel like the downfall of any person is the second an artist starts celebrating their work themselves, that becomes problematic.

It's easy for me to say, "Oh yeah, that's the self-saboteur move that most artists pull whenever they're afraid."

Hip-hop is such a disposable art form from a business standpoint. It never treats its artists as art; it never treats its product as art.

I've come to the conclusion that the average person can do about four things a day, like four real things a day.

My parents were really strict about me not watching cartoons.

Hip-hop is an instant gratification, winners and losers circle, and often those who are losing give up after three or four, five years.

I don't think crack happened by accident. I'm part conspiracy theorist, because you can't develop something that dangerous and have it not be planned.
