Doing it your own way, not having to go exactly by the book to be successful.
I love music. It's freedom, a way to deal with pent-up frustration.
I don't get nothing but love. In every ghetto all over the world. Nothing but love. They respect that I came outta there and I'm doing it the right way. You can't do nothing but respect that.
I still enjoy doing music. I'm not going to stop doing it, and doing it the way that I feel it should be done.
It never gets old. Working with somebody like Kevin Hart is rejuvenating in a lot of ways. He's such a pro. He's so good.
I'm not sure if music got a future. We have all these electronic ways to download and steal music and get music, but there's no money in makin' music.
The way I grew up and the neighborhood I come from, when you know somebody's beating you and you still let it happen, then you're a victim. You're no longer a man when you know something is happening and you don't stand up. So that's just how we raised.
