Just to stay focused on my path and not the path that other people or media want to put me in. Just to stay focused on my vision, because I put out what I want people to know about me. Everything else is what the media puts out.

Lil Wayne would probably be a big musical inspiration for me, because growing up I was just the biggest Wayne fan and being able to be signed to him and watch his whole journey to the peak of his career is great.

You can't hate/love others without loving/hating yourself first.

I did not have to dream I made it a reality.

I could be going through something in my life that I might not want to talk about in my music because my music is the way that I escape some of those things.

[My son] he loves music, but right now, cars are his thing. He told me when he gets older he wants to be a "Ferrari man" and I was like, "A Ferrari man? Do you want to drive Ferraris or do you want to build them?" He was like, "I want to build them."

That's how you become successful, man - you gotta stay busy.
