I've had two jobs my whole life. I worked at FedEx for, like, two days, and I worked at Popeye's for a week. I just needed a check. It was a standard thing for people where I'm from. Well, people from there that did what I did for a living, you know what I'm saying? Go get you a quick check when you mess your money up.
If I wanted you to get a job, I would ask you to get a job. I'm also not stupid. I'm not going to overwork myself. If I have to chase the money, then I can't do this no more. That's not what I signed up for. I didn't sign up to tire myself out.
The first song I did was over a Chief Keef beat - 'Understand Me.' I did that in, like, 2011 or 2012, I think.
I was always able to get money, but now it's a little bit more money, and I manage the same way. I just want to see my family do better.
People don't really call me a rapper. They call me Mr. 'Trap Queen'. The 'Trap Queen' Guy.
If only the people around you know you're an artist, then you're doing something wrong.
I don't ever try to make a song better than my last song. I just try to make it different from my last one.
There's gonna be a lot of great songs, but there ain't going to be another 'Trap Queen.'
Oh man, I would definitely love to work with Kanye on something. But it really is all up to him, so whatever he wants to do, I'm with it.
Plans never go well for me. I just live every day like I ain't gonna live the next one.
Don't let nobody tell you that you can't do it. Love what you do until you don't love it anymore. Nothing's impossible.
I just consider myself an artist. I don't really rap. I don't really sing. I just do what I feel is good, and people like it.
You don't really gotta rap no more; you can just say the verse with a swag now.
I never thought I was going to leave the trap. I even told my mother, 'I'm gonna be the trap God.'
