At the end of the day, people have the right to have opinions. I have the right to have an opinion. And I have the right to say what I want on my music 'cause it's my music. If you don't like it, don't click on it, don't download it.

Sometimes I say stuff to relate to people. It just really depends, because you don't have to be one type of artist and talk about one thing.

At the end of the day, I don't know what makes any artist say what he says. Everyone has a reason for whatever it is they do.

When I started getting into West Coast rap - The Game, then I started studying a lot of Tupac Shakur and watching his interviews.

I'm happy that I'm learning and a lot of these fashion houses are willing to collaborate. I just want to put my swag to what they're doing, because I like street style.

I can't think outside of [bein' an artist]. That's how deep I am into this, and so focused that I really can't think, like, if I wasn't an artist, what I'd be doin' in school. I'm pretty sure I'd be doin' it - if I didn't go into music, I'd be working, have a regular job or something probably, and goin' to school like everybody else and all my other peers around my age.

I didn't know what to expect, but [Alexander] Wang is a great guy. He's always invited me front row to shows, and I performed at a few of his after-parties.
