I've always been a person that, if I'm with a woman, she's in the picture. Even my son's mom, she was on my early (album) covers.

One of the things about powerful people is they have the ability to make it look easy.

The next day, I got a phone call from him and he told me to come and read for a movie called New Jack City. So I went over there and they told me I was gonna wear dreads and play a cop.

When the President (of the United States) mentions your name in anger, you know the sh*t has hit the fan!

My father died early. My mother died early. I started hanging with the gangs. I'm on the streets I'm committing crimes. And the music came along, and this music just took me on a different road.

You know, the radio never wanted you to speak about anything, so the music is kinda influenced by the hands of the radio which wants to homogenize it and dilute it and sanitize it. And for the most part, nobody's takin' the time to seek out the cats that are still tryin' to talk, so they have a difficult time being heard.

The best way to listen to the album is to put it on, get some Moet, lay back with your boys, and kick it.

You have to come in on a professional level to make it, otherwise you just can't get into rap.

I just don't believe that there's any way that you're ever gonna get one peace, because everybody has different ways of seeing life.

Any New York group can come to L.A. and sell out every show, but an L.A. group who goes to New York might not do the same because the audience hasn't been introduced to the group.

There is no such thing as a normal family so don't trip off it, just deal with it.

When I got a chance to rap, I just busted my ass. When I got a chance to act, I busted my ass. Anytime I get a chance. I'm not wasting time. I won't do it if I'm not doing it 110 percent. You've got to work hard if you want to play hard. I like to play, but I know I gotta bust my ass.

I think what's happenin' is that, with the overflow of music, it's been diluted. There was a time when people would go search out underground records. Now, underground means free, and people don't really care for it. So now artists tend to go more pop and look for the radio.

I don't watch daytime television, I have a job, I work and, you know, I think daytime television is really for women.

Well, I am very happy that I was able to play a part in bringing music from the streets onto the radio and into modern culture, I worked very hard and always believed in the sounds I was creating.

I don't rhyme for the sake of riddlin'. If I say it, I gotta be able to back it up.

I write rhymes with addition and algebra, mental geometry.

I think that a rap aficionado, the hardcore rap fan, will always go away from pop, in the same way a hardcore jazz fan will never think Kenny G is really a jazz artist. You gotta kind of know there's always going to be that purist who's going to be like if it ain't beats and rhymes, if there ain't a DJ, then that ain't Hip Hop.

I like crime movies where the crime is so incredible that, attractive as it seems, you don't wanna do it because it's just too dangerous.

Passion makes the world go round. Love just makes it a safer place.

I think when people say 'real hip-hop,' they want it more buried in the streets. They want it more connected to the streets and the grime and the roughness of the streets. They don't want the fluff.
