I had $20 million in the bank, girls are following me all over the f - place, people call my name everywhere I go. What would I change? And then one day you get onstage and you see two little girls who look like they are 11 years old sticking their tongues out and pulling their bras down and you quit touring. That's what happened to me.

You can't have rock and roll without drugs, you can't have rock and roll without sex.

I'm finally locked into the now, and it's great.

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.

You and I, we'll be together 'til the six is nine.

I had always been a free spirit, and always gotten what I wanted.

I'm trying to change the root of funk, trying to make it more progressive, more melodic and more lyrically structured.
