It's evolution, man. Eventually the student becomes the teacher.
When I graduated from high school, the teacher said I was throwing my life away following music.
I definitely consider myself a Christian. There's things that I believe in, there's things I have a self-belief on. I know I got a great relationship with God and the universe. I just believe in being a righteous person and karma. Doing unto others as you would have done unto you. I really want to help teach that.
Yeah, I record on voice memos. I got like 1,000-something memos. If I'm in the middle of something and I can't get it done, I'll jot it down, but I never write a rap out, ever.
I come from a family of scholars who got their Master's degrees. To my grandma - and to a lot of people - an education was a way of making it out of the worst parts of their life.
As a crew, G.O.O.D. Music is taking it to levels that really haven't been done collectively. Kanye is someone who knows how to make classic albums, a true thinker. He got me in the mindset of being a true thinker and always planning out every move you got going.
Definitely people like Kanye, inspired me to work hard. He's somebody who I've seen put that grind in over the years.
Seafood is one of my biggest pet peeves.
God made me in my beautiful form so I'm just trying to execute it.
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.
Gettin' dressed up for court, that's a law suit
For me, personally, Detroit is a melting pot for everything. We get the best from the East Coast, West Coast and down South.
Sometimes I feel like putting on a blazer with just a T-shirt.
