I'm a mess but God is dealing with me every day. That's what all these songs are about: problem, cause and solution.

Wow, this is so amazing. I thank God. This is crazy because this is hip-hop music.

Everything we do should be a result of our gratitude for what God has done for us.

When I have a creative insight, there is a high. I think back in the day, I made music as much as I did because it made me feel so good. I think you could argue that there is a creative addiction - but, you know, the healthy kind.

Over-commercialization and its resulting restrictions and limitations can be very damaging and distorting to the inherent nature of the individual. I did not deliberately abandon my fans, nor did I deliberately abandon any responsibilities.

I don't need anybody to market or promote me. If people don't want to hear this music, then it's not for them. You cannot please everybody.
