A lot of people who work with Dre, you're lucky if anything sees the light of day.

I got invited to work on Dre's 'Compton' project.

I tell people a lot of times, if you want to be a part of something, you never know, you kind of just have to be around. A lot of people don't really have the patience for it, and they don't stick around. Dre and I are still working together, and we have plenty of music for the future.

I don't think there's anybody that has such a keen sense of vocal production and attention to detail as Dre.

It would feel like a smack in the face to sign with any label outside of Dre's. He took a risk on me, and that means everything.

As an artist, you're taking your experiences and placing them into your art. So the more experiences you have, the richer your art and more people can relate to it.
