decision periods made
The best decision I ever made, period, was to get into the music business.
hate hoe half
Half the hoes hate, half them love me. The ones that hate me only hate me cuz they ain't [expletive] me.
doors trying acting
Acting was something I always wanted to try. I just didn't know how, or I didn't know when the door was gonna be open for me to try it. But it finally opened up for me when I did 'Turn It Up', and ever since then I've been in love with doing films.
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.
fun real thinking
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.
reality self done
I ain't done nothing wrong, but love thy self. And harm other niggaz that wanna stop my health.
want beef vegetarian
Right now, I'm pro-leave beef alone. Big shout-out to all the vegetarians who don't want beef!
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.
death today tomorrow
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.
hate old-neighborhood car
Don't hang out in your old neighborhood with your new cars and flash it to guys who don't have that. The only thing you're doing is making 'em hate.
thinking people half
People think being famous is so glamorous, but half the time you're in a strange hotel room living out of a suitcase.
passion music-love i-love-music
I love music; it's my passion.
inmates way superstar
Prison has humbled me in a lot of ways, because when you go to prison, I became 11 R 2024 you know, I wasn't Ja Rule the superstar. I wasn't any of that. I was just a regular inmate.
