The roots of my music start from the ghetto.

It don't last forever, the pain. Realize that tomorrow is coming. Move further from this pain and this stress.

Everything that we put into our bodies should also be of nature, a part of that cycle of nature. Once you start messing with that - as I said, everything is connected. Once you start messing with psychological well-being, we get more and more messed up.

A record is a message, timeless.

As an artist, I feel that my father's biggest influence is me realizing that music has a purpose and it's not just for business and that music is spiritual. I get that from him that music is a spiritual thing.

Alcohol, tobacco, and pharmaceutical drugs are legal, but they can hurt a lot of people.

People are loving me because they don't even know me. "You're Bob's son. We love you." So I think that's a good thing for a father to leave so much that people are loving their children. I'm proud of that.
