I was blessed with the talent. God gave me the gift to put words together and make popular songs.

Rap was slowly becoming one of my hustles, but it wasn't my main hustle. But I come from a family of hustlers, so once I figured the hustle out and mastered it, I took it to my brothers like... "we can flip this just like we flip anything else"... and they were with it but also sort of slow to come all the way on board.

I'm a real dude from a real place and I never express myself through social sites. I don't feed into it, man. That's not real life.

I heard Russell Simmons say that, 'people have million dollar dreams with a minimum wage work ethic.' Basically, everybody wanna be rich but don't nobody wanna work for it.

I really wanna work with Kanye West. He's one of the few people I haven't got to work with yet that I really wanted to.
