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.

All my albums always go with the times.

Anything that looks good makes you feel better.

Everyday, all day I have to be productive. And when I ain't productive, I get concerned.

It wasn't necessary to speak on the recession, you know what I mean, but I just though it made a lot of sense. I was like, "okay, cool," I'm going to go with this approach for the name of the album [ The Recession].

Anybody that's got a problem with me is probably envious or wants to be me, and that's how I've always looked at it.
