For me, when I do a show is to make sure that I gain some new people.

I never want it to be a point where I'm so comfortable that I'm slacking.

If you can stand on stage and perform a record, you should be able to stand on stage and captivate the audience without the rhyme. You should be a master of ceremonies.

My music is just as much me as it is everybody else.

Acting is something I've always wanted to get into - you memorize lines when you write your rhymes.

I want people who are going to rock out for the duration.

As much as I make my music for me, I make it for the people who rock with me and follow me. They're the inspiration behind it.

That's always good when you can bring out two sets of fans and supporters and then kinda cross them in between.

Working with Preme is always a dream come true. It's never like "I'm here and I'm comfortable." It's always like that very first time. It's a lot of jokes being cracked and we have a lot of fun.

People listen to the beat first. So if that doesn't draw people in especially with the audience I cater to, they're definitely about that production.

Once you get a couple of records in, you kinda vibe out then you see what a full length is.

The prospect of being pleased tomorrow will never console me for the boredom of today.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely; and if you surrender your personal responsibility to a government which promises to take care of you, they will only take care of themselves.

Everyone has sorrow. Everyone has obligations. Everyone keeps going. You lean on the people who love you. You do the best you can, and you keep going.

How do you whip up resentment against absentee landlords and pocketers of bribes when the highest ambition of the people is either to become the former or be in a position to receive the latter?

Only the unique is universal.

Dreams are rudiments Of the great state to come. We dream what is About to happen.

I write romance because I love to read romance.

A funny thing about women and machines: the combination made men curious.

I did not have a homosexual relationship with a man in Denver.

I was always an actress, even as a little kid, and fantasy, horror, sci-fi stories are really all about playing make believe. I just never grew out of that.
