I'm passionate about everything, like my family and friends. Anybody I am talkin' to is gonna be bona fide real. There is no substitution for happiness. Period.

Basically, people are never happy enough because they want more money

When I start getting old, I'm going to start ending my prayers like, "Lord, it'd be a good day to die." I don't wanna be 130 years old with a diaper on, all my friends dead and gone. I wanna get to heaven, come get me!

There's no difference in dealing with the music business with the majors than any other competition. The music business is way more cutthroat than any other business.

If you grow up in the suburbs, you hear of people dying of old age, car wrecks, cancer. In the city, it's always people dying of violence or stray bullets.

If you wanna cross somebody, then do that. Don't act like it wasn't you

I only know what I heard and what I read. I had no involvement.
