I wanna be selective... very selective. Right now, hip-hop's very boring to me. It's no excitement.
Everyone wants to work with the big new producer or the hot new singer. The key is to find them before they're hot.
Greatness can never be over because you can lay it down for a minute.
I've always tried different stuff in the studio. I use rakes, spoons, cans... I'm a surround-sound type of guy.
I know somebody in every culture.
I don't have beef with nobody.
I don't think about other people. If I did, I'd wanna compete. But I don't think like that, because I'm above everybody.
I'm making music the way I would have done before modern equipment and music recording.
I been through some junk. It ain't all been peaches and cream.
I try to be as normal as I can.
Don't get in my personal life.
I don't know nothing about no jungle and bass.
I do music for the fans. I want to lift fans up.
I work out all the time. I love it.
