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

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

Melody always comes to me first before words - cadence and melody. When you're humming the melody and it's incredible and words start coming out it can build into something special.

You can usually tell when people aren't being authentic, but that goes for every artist, not just white artists.

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.

Hip-hop is the only music in the world where you can take any instrument and make it hip hop. It's anybody's music. It's what you make of it. That's for anything you do in life.

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.
