Pretty Soon I Think You'll Have Republicans,

I'm So Passionate About Making Good Music.

Now, With The Internet, You're Either Five Years Ahead Or You're Five Years Behind, And The Music Game Is Catchin' Up Right Now.

As Far As My Single Selections, Over The Years It's Been A Very Essential Part Of My Survival Tactic, But I Have No Problem Being Able To Jump On Records With Whoever People Think Is The Rawest Rapper In The Game Or Number One Or King Or Whatever They Wanna Name Themselves, To Be Honest With You. It Doesn't Affect Me, 'cause That's What I Come From; I'm Comfortable In That Zone. But I Don't Wanna Make Hood Music, I Don't Wanna Make Street Music, I Want To Make World Music, Global Music, International Music.

There's Always Something Going On, And People Need That 45-minute-to-an-hour-and-15-minute Break, Where They Just Escape And Not Worry About Bills, Health Care And God Knows What. That, To Me, Is When You're Making Great Music: When People Can Just Forget About What's Going On.

Humor Is Everything. Everything. Usually The Negatives Turned Out To Be The Most Positive For Me. In The Music Industry, Any Other Artist Would Have Looked At The Situation I Was In And Thought, "oh Man, This Is Not For Me." I Looked At It More Like Darwin Exploring The Galápagos Islands. You Know - Survival Of The Fittest.
