Hip-hop is a beautiful thing. I think that the music genre itself has created more millionaires than any other music genre before it, especially in our community.

My mother raised me in the church. I was not allowed to stay home on Sunday; there was no option. I sang in the choir all the way up until I went to college.

Man didn't put me in this place [in entertaining industry]. I'm in this position because of God. And so, if man didn't put me in this place, I really don't see no man that can take me out of here.

The hip hop community is not at fault here - I'm definitely not blaming them. But, that can't be the only view of manhood for our young men.

I know how men think when they're not responding to questions in a clinical study.

I'm still very much a Christian and have a great relationship with God. I love Him, but one of my flaws is that I cuss.

God does things for us because He trusts us; that when He gives it to us, that we will do the right thing. We'll open up our eyes and see the plan He has for us. If we're not going to open up our eyes, don't worry - you're not going to have it long. You're short-lived.
