I always want to execute and maximize off of potential, and this is a natural progression. Coming up as a youngster, I always wanted to be a rapper, but I knew that if I did everything right as a rapper, I'd end up as an actor, following the models of Ice Cube, Tupac [Shakur] and Will Smith.

Some of y'all are not where you want to be in life, yet you party every weekend. What is it that you’re celebrating?

You are not defined by your environment unless you allow yourself to be.

Even when I lose faith in myself there is something in me that speaks through and says I am not finished yet.

If you're not worth speaking on, then you haven't adequately done your job.

People are motivated when they see somebody else doing something.

We cannot afford to not stick and work together for the betterment of our community.
