I always try to act like I'm some old school artist from the 1960s.
I never was a crazy liquor drinker, and I don't like beer that much - though I keep the brews at home because my homies love beer.
I want to be able to do what I want to do. A lot of times, the major labels, they can't see the vision, they can only see the dollar signs. So, it doesn't really work out like that.
The most popular rap artists aren't supposed to be rapping about being broke.
I listen to him [Chief Keef] the most. I like his older mixtapes a little better though, because old Chief Keef scared me - I thought he was about to pop up out of nowhere with a hoodie on and shoot me.
I used to rap as a kid and people were impressed by it, so it gave me the drive to keep going. Everybody has at least one talent. I guess this is my talent.
Certain people in life are just going to take what's given to them, and certain people in life know they want better and they're going to go find better. I've always been that type of person.
If you like soggy cereal, then we not friends.
That's a really tough one. Over the years he's proved it, but for this year that's hard. I like the kid and all, obviously he's the best player in the state, but he just wasn't playing when it counted.
He stepped up and hit some key shots for us. He got the game ball tonight, he has a lot of toughness.
He's proved he deserves it over the years. There's no one better than him.
I dress for a certain type of girl that I like. Women dress for us, they dress to attract us, so we should at least show that gratitude to them, you know what I'm saying?
You can't predict the number of years it will take for someone to find themselves, to mature into their own voice. When I got to be 30, I was finally writing like Danny Brown.
