I bring people on stage with me. It's a good time, and people love to join in on the party. Show me a smile, and I'll show you one back.

More than half of all the hip hop record sales are white people, and I think that might be a result of my record helping people to accept hip hop.

To be truthful, Jay-Z wouldn't have a quarter of the records sold today if it wasn't for the white people buying his records.

I live off a motto that says, 'yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery'. I have goals and agendas. Where ever I'll be tomorrow, that's where I'll be.

Be yourself and enjoy yourself. Show me a smile and I'll show you one back. Karma: Believe in it. It's real. It comes back to you.

All my friends were black and Mexican. I was the only white kid in our group and had to work hard to be accepted. Year after year, we'd breakdance and we all became close and they labeled me "Vanilla" - like "Hey, Vanilla" and they knew I hated it, so of course they kept calling me it.

It wasn't until '94 when I tried to commit suicide that I realized that it wasn't about the money.
