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'm Black". I think that's the best song I ever made in my whole life.

I felt that I'm a real important part when it comes to hip-hop, but maybe not so much in the industry, so I felt that I was better of in an independent situation... where I have some control over my life and there's no middle man and it's basically me and my team handling my situation.

People are loving it [Blow Ya Mind], people are bumping it in cars everywhere. People are hitting me, they feel it, the streets are feeling it.

Definitely giving it my heart and soul from my life as I see it. That whole album [My Brother] is like that, that's how I feel.

I would never sell my soul, for cars and gold

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.
