Who doesn't love Enya? Whenever I'm in a trying time, she is the calm in the middle of the storm. If I put her on, I'll be in this crazy peaceful state. I love her style. And her harmonies are freaking genius.
Female rappers get it the hardest. You have to be a girl, yet you have to be just as hard as the guys. I think some female rappers get scared out of the business before they can make it.
If people are sitting in the barbershop talking about my butt, it's conversational. That's what people are gonna do.
Like to me, I did the 'Harajuku' stuff. I did the crazy stuff. And now I kind of want to tone that back, and it's not toning my personality back, it's just showing like I don't only have to do that.
I feel like my entire career and life, I've been judged by people who did not really know me. I definitely think that they probably were right to assume what they had assumed about me, because there was such little to go on out there.
I look at rap as an opportunity to act. My head is full of different characters - in each song I'm auditioning a character.
Now all the bums is wondering where I be's at -if you ain't a barbie it's none of your freaking beeswax!!!
I keep three hoes, But don't'call me Santa
I thought I was going to die. I was a teenager. It was the hardest thing I’d ever gone through. It’d be contradictory if I said I wasn’t pro-choice. I wasn’t ready. I didn’t have anything to offer a child.
Cause I'm still hood, Hollywood couldn't change me.
But I'm alone on my throne All these riches
Register my money, for the money gymnastic. Cause I make it flip now they be lookin all nasty.
I was in them million dollar meetings, he was cheatin. All up in the church, he was sneakin wit the deacon.
