The music business would be much better, for the youth and the kids, if they start hiring employees that understand the kids.

I'm in prison. But my heart and mind is free. Gangsta haters on the streets are doing more time than me. They need 30 police escorts with them every time they walk down the street.

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.

No matter what it is, I think people want the answer they want, they don't want the truth.

No person ever gave me nothing but God.

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!

I ain't never preyed on the weak. I ain't never gone and picked on a guy that I knew I could beat up, even as a kid. People wanna make me seem like I'm [that] type of guy.
