You Can't Turn A Bad Girl Good,

It's Always Been Most Important For Me To Figure Out "my Space" Rather Than Trying To Check Out What Everyone Else Is Up To, Minute By Minute. Technology Is Making It Easier To Connect To Other People, But Maybe Harder To Keep Connected To Yourself-- And That's Essential For Any Artist, I Think.

I Never Ask For Nothin' I Don't Demand Of Myself. Honesty, Loyalty, Friends And Then Wealth

Artists Can Have Greater Access To Reality; They Can See Patterns And Details And Connections That Other People, Distracted By The Blur Of Life, Might Miss. Just Sharing That Truth Can Be A Very Powerful Thing.

But This Is One Of The Things That Makes Rap At Its Best So Human. It Doesn't Force You To Pretend To Be Only One Thing Or Another, To Be A Saint Or A Sinner. It Recognizes That You Can Be True To Yourself And Still Have Unexpected Dimensions And Opposing Ideas. Having A Devil On One Shoulder And An Angel On The Other Is The Most Common Thing In The World. The Real Bullshit Is When You Act Like You Don't Have Contradictions Inside You, That You're So Dull And Unimaginative That Your Mind Never Changes Or Wanders Into Strange, Unexpected Places.
