I'm more motivated, and I'm just working harder every single day, so it shows in the music, and it shows in the fan base, it shows in all areas when you're bringing it like that.

Usually when fans find out about my music for the first time, they're like "Oh this guy's actually for real!" And it's just like yea, you found Waldo.

I found myself at a time in my career trying to impress everyone. I was constantly thinking about what everyone thought of my music.

I work with a lot of production that's really positive and contains a lot of soul stuff. Those instrumentals project the happiness out of me. But, sometimes I get a darker beat, with some dark piano or something... and then I'll do darker tracks.

I live with all these people, I live with four people that are involved with my music and I call 'em my team and that's what we call GoodLife.

I think every rapper should know how to sing, like a little bit. I mean common man it'll make your rapping better straight up.

I would hope when I do blow up that I can keep that same mentality. I think I will because I'm the kinda dude that no matter how far I take something, I always wanted to be higher.
