I would like people to put down the guns. If you have a problem, talk about it or fight about it.

Growing up, I didn't dream of being nothing, of living in the ghetto my whole life. I wanted to get out.

I'm so sick and tired of all this violence, this gun violence. And how could I speak on it - you know - being one who has advocated violence and gun violence? The only way I could do it was through a song that spoke from the heart.

On the set, I'm a businessman.

I make music that makes you dance, so I mean, it's appropriate, you know what I'm saying? I make the kind of music that DJs can grab a hold of and spin the record and people just love rocking out to the big Snoop D O double G.

It makes me feel the way I need to feel.

The more information you have, the better you will be.
