I just want to be remembered as a dope MC. As somebody who really covered a lot of ground and became internationally known.
RaekwonWhen you devote yourself to being an artist, you have to stay on your craft and always try to get better and better.
RaekwonBefore I think we was emcees, we was more or less narrators too. Because if you look at the early '80s hip hop, it was so much creativity goin' on with artists like then, like Slick Rick, then you had Rakim, and you had these different kind of artists back then. And we was a marble cake of all these artists. So I didn't have a problem with writin' stories because I felt like that was somethin' I loved to do. Even to this day, I really consider myself an entertainer-slash-narrator. I like to talk about stuff that goes on.
