I never tried to crossover or be in the public's eye everyday. I'm laid back with it and at times I wondered if I was doing the right thing promoting myself staying back a little bit and coming out when I felt that I had too.

Rakim
My whole thing is if it wasn't for people like ya'll and people like them I wouldn't be me. I love every minute of it.
Rakim
When I go out I get so much love I gotta change my way of thinking.
