Askin what happened to the feelin that her and me had, I pray so much about it, need some knee pads.
The world doesn't need another clothing company. But it does need a certain funk.
I stopped touring a year and a half ago, ... I just got dead with it.
It's terrible to get those comments, ... but at the same time, I am not 17 anymore. I have put in my time, and if you want to hear hard-core hip hop or rhyming, go back to the earlier albums. I can't pretend that I am in the same place I was when I was 17, 18 years old.
I'm a vegan, but I like to look good, too.
