My music is pretty honest. I can't rap on science fiction. Punk is from the street.

Whether you're rich or poor, life's still cold-blooded.

I'm good. Or maybe people just like me.

Now is my time. Everything I've done up to this point is just a warm up. This is where it all begins.

Anybody that's old and closed-minded does not like Rick James... They don't like the fact that I'm free and I'm wide open.

I just live one day at a time.
