Once I get the track I know what to do with it.

Once I finish one album I know where to begin again.

When I write I get to the point where I slow down and I gotta go back into the world and live nahmean.

It is what it is but I do me and I think people respect that. They see me out in the hood by myself or with wifey and I don't have no bodyguards.

The mind is one of Allah's best designs.

Back in the day, music imitated life. Now it's the opposite way around: life is imitating music. It's like whatever the rappers say, people think that that's how we're supposed to be; but back then, we kind of looked at the streets, and we made music for that.

You gotta let the fans shine their glory the way they want. It's like I have a million bosses and my job is to make them happy.
