The older I get the wiser and more skillful I get.

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

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.

I've always been a fan of hip hop and there are cats out there that I admire.

It ain't where you're from, it's where you're at.

My son plays football so I coach a couple of his teams. My youngest son just started playing last year and I assistant coached for one of his teams. I try to be there as much as I can. I also want to kill the stereotype. I want them to respect me as a man and a father first and then if you like hip hop go buy my album.

I don't try to go to the studio and make a single. I just do whatever I feel.
