There's no real outlet for making Hip-Hop in Alabama. You need to travel to get heard. You really need to be working though. You need to be going at it every day and getting yourself seen, getting yourself out there on the road, doing shows, making music. It's all about being on your grind.

Triple 6 Mafia and Mystikal in Atlanta was one of my first shows. I remember how sweaty and smashed up everybody was, and it was so punk rock.

I just want to make a classic. Classic is the standard. I'm just trying to make music that will last a lifetime.

I definitely prefer intimate crowds. I mean, those are always the best shows, like, a small venue. Packed to the gills. Hot, sweaty. Those are always the fun shows.

Yeah, I have animosity, a chip on my shoulder. But I love, too.

I can tell you that when you're willing to give your life up to see a dream through, the reward is great.

I think any artist that's going to become anything in this world faces humility: with great humility comes great success.
