My music should evoke a feeling; whether it's a feeling in your stomach, goosebumps, whatever. When you don't get a feeling then there's a problem.

I think I lot of young people feel like they have no purpose, so I try to enlighten them with my life and show them you can do whatever you put your mind to.

Young kids out here see what's on TV and feel like they can start rapping. They think rappers are rich and really have their own jets and Bentleys, but in lot of cases that stuff is rented.

I'm really just concentrating on making good music, whether it's using a sample or doing an original track.

I like so many different genres of music that I guess it would be hard for me to pick one person who inspires me when so many people inspire me to make good music.

The only reason I started using samples was because people talked about me not sounding like Kanye or The Heatmakers.

I have no problem with thinking small. Sometimes you have to think small first in order to think big.
