I like a brother that cuts to the chase.
I started to see that my concept of spirituality was totally wrong.
I was unhappy with my life. I had acquired everything I thought I wanted, only to find out, This is it?
I was very confused. I didn't understand the difference between rebellion against God and rebellion against the system that's not God.
From the time that you are a child, you grow up repressing yourself.
For a while, the genre seemed to be just about sex and crime. Rappers are storytellers; the stories don't need to be true!
We have to make sure the music and the message and the words and all the elements come through in our songs and every time we appear in public.
I play my enemies like a game of chess
We think the man with the best rap will protect and save us, but it's not usually that way. Love is something deeper and purer.
In my life the most influential people are people who are sort of brought to me, as opposed to people I seek out.
Every time truth comes we hate it, because it's coming against our ego. Are you going to let the ego come between you and this person you love?
I wouldn't try to put myself in a box or put God in a box.
We were all crazy about music and almost all the money we had, we spent for equipment.
It's funny how money change a situation.
