I'm tryna put out the right stuff and just do me and not pay attention to who's hating and who's loving me and make the music I love to make, and make it the best I can.

I'm just gonna do my own kinda swag of kinda dumbing something down and speaking some knowledge.

I'm from a middle class family. I didn't grow-up rich, but I didn't grow-up poor. Each guy has to stick to his own story.

I'm really just tryna bring it home for my city, I'm trying so hard to be the best I can be on every record I do, every feature I do and every different city I go to.

I think the new school is dope. Artists like Kid Cudi, The Cool Kids, Drake and Wale can come out of middle class homes and be on tracks with people like Jay-Z, who's from the hood and the street.

Me, personally, I'm just happy. I have a great mother. I have two great sisters. I couldn't ask for more. I'm healthy. I do what I love.

There is no greater success than turning your true passion into a dream, and seeing its reality come to manifestation.

I think every person has their own identity and beauty. Everyone being different is what is really beautiful. If we were all the same, it would be boring.

Actors have to be there and do the work, and that's enough.

Astrology, the noblest of sciences.

We want American families to feel more confident in life. We want the next generation to know that yes, the best days of this country are still ahead of us.

Adequacy is the enemy of excellence.

Even if you're specific about the character of the song, it's more exciting to place them, juxtapose them in such a way as to make an adventure out of the sequence of the songs.

Memory is the treasure house of the mind wherein the monuments thereof are kept and preserved.

There is nothing so bad that politics cannot make it worse.
