All those who came out of my neighborhood before me. Beyond those you see on TV, the most important people are those who are close to you because they share the same reality.

I am not versed in production software. I have basic knowledge, but it ends there.

When my song "Danny Glover" leaked, I was a little bummed, but it finally allowed Kanye West [to listen]. One of my biggest surprises was his reaction: he liked [it] and he said he wanted to make a record together.

I do not always listen again but if something strikes me, I exploit it.

I don't want my kids saying, 'My dad was a gangster, so I need to be a gangster. I would rather mine say, 'My dad was a stunna, so I need to be a stunna.'

I spend more time with Gucci [Mane] or Birdman than 300, but all this is just family. Who cares [about] contracts?

I'm always in range of a microphone. I even have a studio at home.
