As far as my inspirations, I just like anyone who is making good music - period.

You can't have somebody guide you through everything - some things you have to learn on your own.

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

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

I think at the end of the day you can do both: make money and stay true to yourself. But a lot of young people look for that fame that some of these huge artists that they see on TV have, not knowing they can do what some of these underground artist are doing which is not selling their souls for a buck.

God is my spiritual guide. Half the music I come up with I really don't know where it comes from.

I would describe myself as a hard worker, very humble and focused on whatever it is that I put my mind to.
