I'm too old to do crazy things anymore.

Off stage it's cool-out time. You can't funk and roll ALL the time.

I was going to get drafted, but I didn't really want to go into the Army.

I mean, Rick James was just a man-made image, the image I created. Just trying to live Rick James almost killed me.

If I told you Jesus Christ was black you're going to be afraid of me because I'm telling you the truth. That's where I always come from.

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

I just live one day at a time.
