Quote

If one person comes in and says, this is the way life should be, I think you're asking for chaos. I think you gotta let different people live different ways. It's a big world.

I'm very much against the anonymity of bloggers and social media. I just hate it and I think it's really cowardly.

Real men hold themselves accountable for stuff.

I was doing the wrong thing, at the time I thought I was doing the right thing. It's like if you're dealing with somebody who is high on drugs, they can look back at it and say, Wow, I was destroying myself. But during the period, they think they're doing the right thing. You just have to let the smoke clear so you can see the whole picture.

Rap is rock 'n' roll. Rock is when you push the buttons in the system when you say, I'm not going along with what you're saying. That's rock, whether it's done with guitars, or it's done with just beats.

I started writing rhymes first and then put it to the music. I figured out I could lock it to the beat better if I heard the music first. I like to get a lot of tracks, put the track up and let the music talk to me about what it's about.

Hollywood has its own way of telling stories. I was just telling stories that I was familiar with. And it's what I want to do in the future: I want to take my audio cinema and put it on the screen.

I think all music - not just rap - has fallen into this very diluted, delusional state, where everyone's singing about money and having cars, and having all this fun when really, people are losing their homes.

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.
