I read a lot of prose poetry and get inspired by more-so just a state of mind.

I tend to not try and listen to a lot of other artists while I'm writing, because if I hear something that's brilliant.

I want to play a show at Madison Square Garden in New York, which is where the New York Knicks play. That's what I want.

I'd say Ernest Hemingway would be a blast to get drunk with.

Hold your head high heavy heart.

I do not ask for my rights. I have no rights. I have only wrongs.

For some women, a man is their whole meal. For me, life is a full meal and a man is just the hot sauce. If a man wants to be my whole meal, I say, 'That's nice, baby, but right now, I'm already full.

If you will just start with the idea that this is a hard world, it will all be much simpler.

Rolling down the street, smoking indo, sippin' on gin and juice.
