Hip-hop isn't as complex as a woman is.

I like the fact that I can rep New York, but my style does not - I'm not trapped in a New York thing. I can do art songs with other artists and it's seamless.

They ask me what I'm writing for - I'm writing to show you what we're fighting for.

Truthfully I wanna rhyme like common senseNext best thing I do a record with common sense

Why give you the cure when the disease makes money?

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.

I will never do a record without some sense of responsibility.
