I thank God for Hip Hop because Marvin Gaye didn't have that and he was able to be that dope. For us to have that and more, I feel like it is up to us to be as dope as we can possibly be.

You just do you like when you're doing any other song. It's nothing different. Some people are like How's it like working with Kendrick Lamar? and really, it's like working with anyone else that I work with.

I don't really concentrate on Urban AC or whatever. I don't concentrate on genres or how people section off songs for radio.

A lot of people don't understand the building phase. They don't have the blueprint, but we do. With us having the blueprint and knowing what we want to build, it's not how it's supposed to be built, but what we want to build. I think it makes everything easy for us to stay focus and have that tunnel vision.

Using what you have is always creates more opportunities for the future.

I embrace everybody, but you work everybody and each song at a time to who it is for. I believe that's how you build a palace. You build a palace one block at a time and then you'll have what you want. That's how it goes.

I just make music from my soul and let it be.

I just sing the song and I sing it with conviction, meaning and I get into the mood of every song I do no matter how much time I have in between.

I've got some cool features with some cool people coming out but I can't speak on it right now.
