The only mofos in my circle are people that I can learn from.

I love traveling the States no matter what. I love traveling abroad, going to Japan and Australia. I love it. I never get tired of it.

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

Every time a new record started, people exhaled with pleasure, or their bodies moved automatically. I really started getting high off of the euphoric exclamations. Every record I put on was like a baptism.

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 do count on a changing of tides. All too often, what could be a critics' darling today becomes tomorrow's target. I don't want to be too blasé about it.

My parents were really strict about me not watching cartoons.
