When you are making an album, it is about the purpose - you are creating both a concept and vibe, then you follow through with that.

What's the point of creating a budget if it's not possible to follow through?

There's something about real music, dawg. It comes to you; you don't have to go to it.

I love loyalty, and I love paying back my end of loyalty, you know what I'm saying? I love making it full circle.

I definitely have a relationship with God for myself, and yes I grew up that way, and I choose to keep the relationship that way. It's real; that's my balance. Sundays, I was in church, and Monday through Friday, I was with the knuckleheads having a little fun.

I can give you a six-word formula for success: Think things through - then follow through.
