You can look in a book of wrong and learn more right. If you're reading a book that has all wrong in it , you're learning what not to do.

Now it seems like hip hop belongs to the people you see in the videos and radios. So I want to give it bring it back to the hood, make a statement for NY to put us back in our proper perspective, and of course let them know that Ra still spits fire.

What I want to do right now is give hip hop back to the hood. Before it was a neighborhood thing where it belonged to the hood and the rappers were reporting and there were rules and parameters. Now it seems like the artist's game.

A lot of reasons I didn't do records with people is because I never wanted their light to reflect on me.

If anybody can make a change it's the rappers.

Keep your guns on and don't let anybody tell you how to load your guns or bust ya guns.

I try to keep myself out of the unnecessary bullshit.
