I only know what I heard and what I read. I had no involvement,
There's no difference in dealing with the music business with the majors than any other competition. The music business is way more cutthroat than any other business.
I am in the penitentiary. The only thing that I do is my time.
For thugs from the ghetto, violence is a way of life - it's what helps you survive.
In prison, you get the chance to see who really loves you.
I'm passionate about everything, like my family and friends. Anybody I am talkin' to is gonna be bona fide real. There is no substitution for happiness. Period.
If you wanna cross somebody, then do that. Don't act like it wasn't you
When I start getting old, I'm going to start ending my prayers like, "Lord, it'd be a good day to die." I don't wanna be 130 years old with a diaper on, all my friends dead and gone. I wanna get to heaven, come get me!
I ain't never preyed on the weak. I ain't never gone and picked on a guy that I knew I could beat up, even as a kid. People wanna make me seem like I'm [that] type of guy.
I think the biggest misconception about me probably is ... I don't prey on the weak. I ain't a bully, but I ain't no saint, either.
As far as anybody in the rap game ever tryin to assassinate my character, thats impossible. You talkin about a man who has always walked the walk and talked the talk.
You got good and bad people everywhere.
No matter what it is, I think people want the answer they want, they don't want the truth.
The best revenge in the world is success.
