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.

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.

When I'm in the studio I just try to zone out and not think of whatever is in the industry, if it sounds too much like someone else, I have a tendency to erase it.

It's a beautiful thing to build your own fan base and pay the bills knowing that you're staying true to your music at the end of the day. I look at life like this, the sky's the limit!

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.

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

I have always been the type of person to want to reach a goal no matter how far-fetched it was.
