I represent the Democratic party... I've never been nor do I ever plan to be a John McCain supporter. I support Barack Obama.

When money was plentiful, I was the first one who told you to stack it. Live your life with it. Now that money slowed up, I'ma be the one telling you to save it like they ain't gon' make it no more.

Music is how you feel. But if I can say one word, I'll say 'necessary.' I felt it was necessary.

I've got to pay $5 for gas just like everybody else.

I think everybody knows my sound because I'm me, you know? But, on your fourth album, I think you've definitely gotta show growth because I definitely don't plan on being one of those cats that fade off. It's always about growing with me; I grew up over the years.

Every time I'm out and somebody tells me they love what I do, that's what I do it for. That's like my vice. That's like my high. When people understand that this is who I really am, and to be appreciated for your craft .

All my music is inspirational. You just gotta listen to the words and get what you can get out of it.
