I'm not ashamed of anything that I've done because when I did it, I was passionate about it and I was doing it for a reason.

My fans are like no other. Completely original people.

Skateboarding is a part of Hip-Hop culture. I think it's the fifth element of Hip-Hop - emceeing, deejaying, b-boying, graffiti, and skateboarding. Skateboarders live and die on the streets. It's expression - it's everything that Hip-Hop is.

You learn how to be an individual quick after 15 schools, man. After the first five or six, you realize you're always gonna be the new kid.

I love performing. I love getting out there. It's kind of like why I make music.

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

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.
