What you do in your art - TV, music, film stuff - touches people. And they want to touch you. So that's a blessing. I'm okay with it.
What I say on a record and what I say off a record is two different things. And that's always been the case. There's a difference between confidence on a record and arrogance.
Dreams don't have deadlines...
When adversity strikes, that's when you have to be the most calm. Take a step back, stay strong, stay grounded and press on.
Once you achieve one goal, you should be looking forward to trying to build onto the next thing, and not just getting comfortable with what you're doing.
You've got to stay focused without being boring - because all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Skinny, but dull.
You have to always continue to strive no matter how hard things get, no matter how troubled you feel. No matter how tough things get, no matter how many times you lose, you keep trying to win.
When you have a clear vision of your goal, it's easier to take the first step toward it.
Stand up and face your fears, or they will defeat you.
Our world is at the crossroads. We have a choice, right and wrong.
Like your booty don't stink.
When I’m alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall, and in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call.
Perm in your hair or even a curly weave, Wichya New Edition Bobby Brown button on your sleeve. I tell you come here, you say, 'Meet me half way,' Cause brothers been popping that game all day.
Suckas on my jock when I walk down the block, I really don't care if you're jealous or not.
