It's a hell of a relief. Especially for a dude like me who is so hands on and I like to pretty much all the way hip-hop. So it's difficult when you're dealing with the majors.

I mean family is more important than anything in life. Family is important than my crew, D-Block, my rap career anything... It's the most important aspect of a person's life.

Weird like Murdock, thinkin' like Hannibal, Man like Face but I'm wild like B.A.

When you're indie and you have your hands on yourself and you're not working for someone, you're working with someone and you're dealing with them, it's a totally different feeling involved.

An album takes at least a year or 8 months and I think that's too long for your fans to wait to hear you again.

I put that in my management's hands and my company's hands. We sit down all together, the family, D-Block, my management and I go build with KOCH, the distributor. You open up your own sites, you get your MySpace, you get your websites and get your little digital team on the side... and that's how you handle that.

I am street hip-hop brother. That's my biggest message with that one.
