I always tried to manage my money smart.

I always had an intelligence with me, I was always in the streets, I was always trying to do good. I was always looking for something to guide me. In the beginning church wasn't it.

Sometimes I feel I'm the luckiest rapper in the world.

I get the Martian look all the time even in the hood. I walk down to the shopping block and people just look at me with their mouth open man like what are you doing out here and I'm like I'm trying to get a pair of sneakers duke what's good? What are you doing [and I'm like] I'm hungry I wanted some juice and I needed some bread.

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

I think half of our life is written out for us and things happen the way their supposed to happen.

Go to the club or go to the block or go hang out and things start coming.
