Being called a conscious rapper is quite a compliment. It's a great thing to be. But as an artist, my nature is to not be in a box.

Music is not an exact science so depending on the time and the mode and the energy when we do it that will determine what happens with it.

I think its man's nature to go to war and fight.

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.

So I just had to step up how I was doing it and the moment that I stepped up and the moment I focused all my energy on that is when things started to happen. So there's a direct relationship between my inspiration and my output.

I support the idea that artists have to make a stand. I'm with that - you're putting the discussion on the table and you're letting people know. You're being brave as an artist and responsible to the community.
