That's something I've always been down with: creative commons and people being able to license their music and allow other people to reuse it and recycle it.

Sometimes the only way to fix a mistake- is to make it twice.

With rap music, there are billions and billions of samples that are uncleared that people have never been bothered about on an underground level.

KRS-One is one of my favorite rappers ever. I actually don't even know why I have this on my computer, but I do. I really like this album, Criminal Minded.

The traditional DJ world isn't a world that I come from.

I want to make new and interesting music out of pop music in a way that isn't ironic. I want to stay sincere to the source material but at the same time manipulate it and take it to a new world.

The point has always been to make music, it's not like I've always been running a giant money making scheme.

The music is in no way politically based - I'm not trying to make a point about sampling. It may bring up issues but I'm not trying to push it on anyone.

I still like weird music but there's such an overabundance that it's hard for me to stay enthusiastic about it.

I'm just making fun music so you can let your guard down and enjoy it, don't worry about what's cool and what's not.

I think some people form the traditional DJ worlds misunderstand where I'm coming form.

[about a hat] You can put it on and say, "Hey you, person without a hat! I've got something you don't! How did I get it? Probably by being worth more to society.

He who writes prose builds his temple to Fame in rubble he who writes verses builds it in granite.

The whole purpose of writing a book is to be understood - if other people write about you, they try to guess why you did things, or they hear things from other people.

Don't confuse who you are with the results that you produce.

What I know for sure is that what you give comes back to you.

And I want you to know that I have no intention whatever of ever walking away from the job that the people elected me to do for the people of the United States.

A Gold Glove would be one of the things I would really cherish. When I was younger, I was always smaller. I couldn't hit, so I had to work on defense.

Spying has always gone on since ancient times.

I like the job. That's what I'll miss the most... I'm not sure anybody ever liked this as much as I've liked it.
