Seafood is one of my biggest pet peeves.
I just wanted to do something that had some meaning that I can look back and be proud of, that my family can look back and be proud of.
I want to win some awards, sell more records - just do whatever I want.
Definitely people like Kanye, inspired me to work hard. He's somebody who I've seen put that grind in over the years.
Lil Wayne is somebody who I used to ride to school listening to in my car. You know from Tha Carter to Tha Carter II, to Dedication 1 & 2, to Da Drought, his mixtapes. You know you got that for him as him being a rap legend, somebody who you look up to.
It has no color to it. If you can rap good, you can rap good. I look at Mac Miller, who’s one of my homies, and I look at Wiz Khalifa, who’s one of my homies, and I don’t look at Mac different because he’s white. He’s my homie.
I think gold is made for kings and pharaohs - that's what I am.
I hate all the old pictures of me before 2010 - and they are always the first ones to come up. That's why I don't Google myself, man.
I'm really vulnerable onstage because it's just me. I'm not really trying to put up a front or act a certain way.
For me, personally, Detroit is a melting pot for everything. We get the best from the East Coast, West Coast and down South.
I probably wasted a couple of thousand dollars on some dumb-ass clothes.
I think just dreaming big and having aspirations is important. So you know I want to be the greatest of all time at what I do and if you're not trying to be the greatest at what you do then you're not doing it for real.
Bout to inhale like I'm finnin to see Satan. We're Satanic. It's the law.
I feel like you should be confident in whatever you do, and a lot of my new music [that's coming out] I want people to judge more so than the music I've put out recently, because I feel like it's really changed a lot.
