I've got to pay $5 for gas just like everybody else.
Honestly, I'm on the road so much that I never really get a chance to go to baseball games.
All my music is inspirational. You just gotta listen to the words and get what you can get out of it.
To be honest, I think about the clubs when I write. But I should probably start thinking about stadiums, because the songs sound even better there - and bigger.
As long as I'm not selling out the people that ride or die with me, I'm glad I'm not an MC. I'm a motivational speaker. I'm not that rapper dude.
I don't really feel McCain. It ain't just because Barack is black; he can make change. Just like Bush equals recession, Barack equals progression.
It's not the average people that come to my show.
I'm a motivational speaker.
I feel like I'm married to what I do, to the streets. And I feel like when the streets are mad, it's serious.
Married to the game. If we're dancing with the devil at least teach us how to dance when the son of making dollars.
I don't know how to be a rapper. I just know how to be me.
My fans are my family, because they understand me and I understand them.
I don't just do music for the clubs, I do music for the struggle. I do music for everyday niggas, the kids who ain't got no sense of direction. I'm trying to restore some of the morals back into the game, as far as the street.
A lot of people question how talented I am. But I'm a real dude and I know real things and I've seen real people get their head blown off.
