I don't think about other people. If I did, I'd wanna compete. But I don't think like that, because I'm above everybody.

I wanna be selective... very selective. Right now, hip-hop's very boring to me. It's no excitement.

I never had any plans to become a producer when I was a kid. I wanted to be a DJ, like most other kids at the time. Then my mum bought me a Casio keyboard and I started to sample sounds that I liked.

It's probably hard to be married to me. It's not easy.

I'm making music the way I would have done before modern equipment and music recording.

I work out all the time. I love it.

I'm trying to do something real different; I'm trying to bring the street to real pop. I'm trying to bring the street to pop. Not watering it down, no nothing.
