When you come in the building with your guns don't take them off.

I've always tried to insert consciousness and spirituality in my records, interpreting the writings of all cultures and religions and how they apply to life in modern times.

A lot of times when people listen to music it's because they feel down, and that's when serious hip-hop comes into play. When times is hard, people can hear a rapper that inspires them to do what they [are] supposed to do.

I just try to do me and stay out of harms way.

Playing the sax and then enjoying jazz music man. It's like I learned how to find words inside of the beat.

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

Back then all I cared about was rhyming and making beats. That was my trade, my hobby.
