I feel like people mislead themselves when they tell themselves they're into me because of the lyrics. From my vantage point, people aren't into me because of the content, because of the lyrics. Because there's a million of rappers who have great content.

Hopefully, we learn to appreciate hip-hop here so that it doesn't go the way of jazz.

I look at the deejay thing as a tier thing. If I'm not going to compete on that level, I'm just going to do it as a hobby.

It’s very seductive to focus on what you don’t like as opposed to celebrating all that it is that you do.

I try to count the blessings rather than the problems.

I like collaboration because, first of all, I'm good at writing lyrics. I don't know how to make beats. I don't play instruments. I'm not a good singer. So even when you see a solo album of mine, it's still a collaboration.

Just because someone has great content doesn't mean you like them as a rapper.
