I love music; it's my passion.

People think being famous is so glamorous, but half the time you're in a strange hotel room living out of a suitcase.

Kill us today or you'll have to kill us tomorrow.
dream fashion successful
I knew I wanted to be successful in some form or fashion. My first dreams and aspirations of being successful was probably that I wanted to be a successful drug dealer. I wanted to be Nino Brown. That was my first dream.
rap successful years
I came into the rap game in 1992; my life was changing, but my group wasn't successful; I also saw the biggest rappers in the world die all of a sudden in the ensuing years, so it was a matter of conquering yourself before you can conquer the world.
jail focus serious
Being incarcerated is truly very serious, and it has changed my life to such an extent that breaking the cycle has become my sole focus. Jail is definitely not cool. Education is.

There's always something going on on movie sets. Even just from, you know, maybe you come in tired some days and you're not in your best mood. It's different when you're shooting movies because you're on a schedule and you gotta come with your A-game every day.

I ain't done nothing wrong, but love thy self. And harm other niggaz that wanna stop my health.

I think I wanna do some action stuff down the road. I wanna kill some aliens. Something real fun, you know? Just a big, fun movie.
growing-up believe thinking
We, as artists, we have the right to express ourselves. That is our first amendment, freedom of speech. But I also believe that we have an obligation to the youth to be somewhat responsible in what we say on records. But I think that comes with age. I think that comes with artists growing up and becoming assured of who they are as people.
should-have should feels
As far as religion goes, I feel like everyone should have their own one-on-one with God.
hands nervous
Be very nervous of the shaky hands.
