I'm not looking to set a standard... but, I believe I have offered a challenge to others with my work.

I think hip hop is a dance music that's rebellious by nature.

I met Mos Def around that time but I didn't hook up with him until I was about 17 or 18.

You gotta eat right, you gotta have healthy habits, you know, and balance out your decadence with a healthy lifestyle during the day.

Life without knowledge is death in disguise.

There just needs to be a gay rapper who's better than everybody. That's when that question will no longer be able to be asked.

There are staples to my show. I have to be conscious about switching things up because I know people who saw me last year will say, 'He did that last time.' But if certain things work, they work.
