[Hiking] is not that crazy, but when you look back and you see that mountain you just climbed, you say, I can't believe I did that.

I would like - either as an actor, or producer or even director - to do something sci-fi or action-related. I like sci-fi, always have, 'Star Trek' and 'Star Wars' and all that stuff.

I never really took any acting classes. I'm just a natural ham, I guess.

I came from a crew, and to me, all the guys I rapped with were better than me, so I was surprised when I was the breakout one. It was definitely a cool thing.

There were musicians that influenced me, but they weren't all women. Teena Marie was a big influence because she wrote and produced her own music, which let me know that women could write and produce their own music, which was an empowering moment for me.

It's not always easy to do the right thing. But, doing the right thing makes you strong, it builds character.

I've never been the straight rapper that is going to stand in a cipher and battle all day. I started off battle rapping, but to me, making songs became more important than freestyles... I've met many rappers who can freestyle but can't make a record.

When you're rapping, you do have to perform to a certain degree, but not every rapper is necessarily a gifted actor.

There are times you can't really see or even feel how sweet life can be. Hopefully its mountains will be higher than its valleys are deep. I know things that are broken can be fixed. Take the punch if you have to, hit the canvas and then get up again. Life is worth it.

You just have to connect with people who believe in your vision and who will work with you and advance your cause.

My mother wouldn't allow me to speak slang when I was growing up. But when I got outside, around my friends, it was 'Yo' and 'That's the joint' and 'Yo, what's up?' So I had my game for my friends and my game for my mom.

Yeah, I'm from Jersey it's almost like I was automatically born a Nets fan.

People say I'm going to be the next Oprah. But I say no, because Oprah is still Oprah. I'll be the next me. I feel like there's always a lane for me as long as I'm true to myself.

Fear can be good when you're walking past an alley at night or when you need to check the locks on your doors before you go to bed, but it's not good when you have a goal and you're fearful of obstacles. We often get trapped by our fears, but anyone who has had success has failed before.

I often go to bed in my birthday suit. But I like teddies and cute little undies that match. I like a sexy bra and panty set, or little shorts.

I want every day to be life for the living, not just traipsing through it existing. I'm just interested in life and the world and exploring.

It's great to be able to employ people who other people wouldn't consider viable employees.

Beauty is not just a white girl. It's so many different flavors and shades.

I'm as involved as I can be. Whenever I'm asked to do something, I always tend to show up.
