More quotes by Curtis Jackson
Ambition is a tunnel that you run through that doesn't end.
Curtis Jackson
In Hollywood they say there's no business like show business. In the hood they say there's no business like ho' business.
Curtis Jackson
Because hip-hop has no requirements, you deal with people that have the least intelligence on the planet. Some of the people that compare themselves to me, compare themselves to me because they rap and I rap. They can't even read the contracts that they sign to be a rapper, to do the deal.
Curtis Jackson
I make music cuz it's almost like I can escape everything I was involved in. All I gotta do is make music. I don't do nothin but make music.
Curtis Jackson
My description of fun would be to sit on someone's couch and watch TV. Regular cable TV. When I'm in a hotel, on-demand is the same. I watch the TV in another language, trying to figure out what they're saying.
Curtis Jackson
When you get in a point when you generate finances in a circle of people they gonna treat you different. They gonna treat you like as if you're gonna bring the money. You're the cash cow.
Curtis Jackson
The greatest fear people have is that of being themselves.
Curtis Jackson
When I reached the top in business, I adjusted to my new position – I became bolder and crazier than before. And I listened even less to people who tried to slow me down.
Curtis Jackson
A thug is what I want and a thug is what I need. And my friends don't understand, and I think it's jealousy.
Curtis Jackson
When I'm actually creating music, I try not to listen to the hip-hop records that are going on, because I think, subconsciously, we steal from each other. If you're listening to a record and it's really hot, then you'll be looking for something that feels like that, or that has a version of it.
Curtis Jackson
I never had working papers. I never had a job. I sold crack until I got in the music, so this is the best thing that happened to me and I do it excessively.
Curtis Jackson
When my son came into my life, my priorities changed, because I wanted to have the relationship with him, that I didn't have with my father.
Curtis Jackson
People who actually have money don't want to talk about it. They want to talk about everything else.
Curtis Jackson
Death is a large form of entertainment, probably the largest. Watching death in different ways is entertaining for us, whether it's a high-speed chase and a guy grabs a helicopter and flies away. We know the reality of it is that he wouldn't be physically able to hold onto that helicopter and fall to his death. But it's entertaining to watch.
Curtis Jackson
Real man is someone who handles his responsibilities. Take care of all of his responsibilities. No matter how, by any means take care of your situations.
Curtis Jackson
I think either you're creative or you're not. In general, I don't think you need to be in pain to actually be creative unless you're writing love songs. Then you might need to have some ups and downs within your emotions to start to capture that.
Curtis Jackson
I believe people have a little more interest in reading what I'm saying or hearing me speak because they know I ain't gonna sugarcoat it. Because I give them the truth.
Curtis Jackson
When I nearly died it made me think – this can happen again any second. I better hurry and do what I want. I started to live like I never lived before. When the fear of death is gone, then nothing can bother you and nobody can stop you.
Curtis Jackson
Obama is for same-sex marriage. If the President is saying that, then who am I to go the other way?
Curtis Jackson
I'm the diamond in the dirt, that ain't been found. I'm the underground king and I ain't been crowned.
Curtis Jackson
