So many things come from people's parents lying to them about the truth about things. I feel like, once those ideas die with people, we'll be good in a couple of generations.
I love Louisiana fried fish, but it's all Martin Luther King, I can't go over there.
I don't have any dreams or aspirations or goals I want to meet music-wise, so there's nothing to keep me from being level-headed.
Radio is better than writing because they can't lie. Cause sometimes writers be straight lying, bro, and these headlines be making me mad.
If your children don't fight, they won't love each other when they get older! It's a common thing.
If you hit a kangaroo in the street and you have to pull out on the side of the road, it can get back up and murder you.
Where I come from, there's no common enemy, there's no "why." There's no, "I hate white people."
I live in a pretty liberal place, so it's a lot of hidden racism and things like that. If you really look up California, it's a really shitty place when it comes to things like that.
Whenever you have people in power, they try to control people. It's not necessarily a bad thing to control people - you can control people for good, you can control people for bad, but you're gonna try and control people.
Rappers kinda look stupid sometimes. Most of the time. I'm pretty sure I look stupid too a lot.
A lot of music comes from a selfish place…
There's a price tag on everything including black people's lives and what they do with them.
My brothers used to beat me up, but I used to fight my sisters 'cuz I couldn't hit them back, so I had to find specific severe ways to punish them.
Drugs are horrible; I say no to drugs. I've never done drugs in my life.
