I'm a thinker; I think too much. So for me to freestyle rap, it's like I'm thinking three, four time steps ahead, and I hate it.

Hip-hop don't have no fresh energy, none at all. It's money driven, everybody tryin' to make that cheque, nobody putting art in their albums any more.

The world doesn't need another clothing company. But it does need a certain funk.

They can bite, but cannot be us, They can come and pick up little slang but cannot see us, You ought to be ashamed trying to fit in my adidas, So Run like DMC like you don't know you got no heater

Everybody's got opinions on the way you're livin', But see, they can't fill your shoes.

I said, 'What you wanna be?' She said, 'Alive.' It made me think for a minute, then looked in her eyes ...I coulda died.

These families, you know, are our upper crust, not upper ten thousand.

If men do not keep on speaking terms with children, they cease to be men, and become merely machines for eating and for earning money.

Long live the sun which gives us such beautiful color.

I have a full life: I have two amazing kids, I have great friends, great family. And right now, that's plenty for me to manage. A new relationship just seems like way too much work.

I never wanted to be a public speaker.
