It definitely changed the game. I happen to be in the game around [the time] when the internet kicked in.

When I hear people tell me they love what I do, no matter what the climate is, it makes me want to go harder, because that's what I'm out here fighting for - to get that love. You just want to be appreciated for being you and being the best you.

A lot of things come with fame, whether it's losing friends or losing family. You still gotta stand up and be that guy even when you ain't having great things. Because you've gotta be the spokesperson for your people.

You've got to be happy with yourself. You can't sell yourself if you're out here and you ain't good. Because you're giving people messages, and if your message is wrong, then it's like the blind leading the blind.

With rap, it's a funny thing. You can say things, and people can take 'em the way they wanna take 'em.

I'ma continue to make records, continue to make hits, continue to be what I am, legendary.

I always try to go back and check my old stuff. It's like watching the tapes of the game. You want to go back and go as hard as before.
