aspects entire good growing heard heavy house music people poetry rap shortcut word worst
I think rap music is rap music. I mean, are there heavy writing aspects of it? Absolutely. In a sense, is it poetry? Yeah. I've heard that so much, growing up in a house with poetry. But I think people like to use that as a shortcut for who's good and who's not. It's like the word 'lyrical' - 'lyrical' is the worst word in the entire world.
bunch good rather sort takes time trust
It takes me a long time to write, and I trust myself, so I write very sparsely, so when I do, I know it's good, you know what I mean? Rather than writing a whole bunch and having to sort out what's good and what's not.
fact good ok remind
My friends have to remind me that it's OK to own the fact that you're good at something. I think it'll just come with getting older.
At the end of the day, I'm not some evil guy.
song video sometimes
Sometimes videos make a bad song very tight.
thinking artist people
People think artists like 50 Cent don't have charisma, but it's just a different kind of charisma, a bully charisma, which is kinda frowned upon.

"Sunday" was the best one I think I made.
beats knows know-how
My beats are pretty s - - y, though. I don't know how they work.
home trying figures
When I got home, I was trying to figure out how to be home. Like, be home in a sense that had nothing to do with music.
centurions
"Centurion" is probably one of my favorites [of RZA Day ].
crazy needs type
That sums up why it's crazy to meet Paul McCartney because he's the type of n - - that needs that.
