I'm like Cab Calloway: I love the entertainment, and I've loved entertaining people ever since I was little.

You get quick money, it's beautiful, there's sunshine, but at the end of the day, you find out it's all a masquerade, baby. It's not what it seems.

Coming from Haiti and growing up in Brooklyn, there's a lot of European influence when I get dressed up. I wear a lot of fitted suits, elegant cuts; I think it's cool to mash up a lot of different looks.

I know that the nice shines I have on is going to pass. The nice cars will pass. All that will stay is the music and the work. That's where I get the inspiration to help people out and work

Ever since I was a little kid, there used to be the Carnival that used to pass.

Once you're done in hip-hop, you're done.

My parents were Christian.
