I've been known not to bite my tongue.
Lil Wayne makes good music. He's one of the best rappers.
Just give me a mic, and I'll rock it.
My mom had me at a young age, like 20, and she was the oldest child. All her brothers were seven and 10, so I was like a younger brother more so than the oldest child. I was the younger brother to all my uncles, so they were going through their childhood and their teenage years, and I was right there.
There's some dudes that did Gangsta Grillz tapes who probably weren't worthy of it - their label just put up the bread, or they did a favor.
My core thing is gangster rap, but a lot of my music is melodic and carries a message of survival.
I don't really know what a debut album is no more. As long as you got music on the streets, you've debuted.
I had a nightmare that I was mopping floors and that this Freddie Gibbs thing was all a dream.
Sports is one of the keys to my life. It definitely kept me out of a lot of trouble and gave me a lot of discipline.
I just have to go against the grain. I mean, I can be objective and do what I need to do, handle my everyday living, follow directions, etc. But there's something that's always been attracted to that taboo. It's been like that since I was a child.
The neck is not something you should have surgery on that much.
I'd be a liar if I didn't say I learned things from Jeezy. Hell yeah, I took some things, some pluses and some minuses, do's and don'ts.
My TV stays locked at 'SportsCenter.' That and 'Pardon the Interruption.'
I like good music, whichever lane it comes out of. As long as it's dope, that is all that matters with me.
I feel like I influence more than just rap.
I'm not really comfortable with being on songs with cats I don't really know.
I don't ever really plan my sets. I just get out there and feel the energy of the crowd.
Gary is a old factory town right outside Chicago. From my standpoint, my family migrated there in the '50s and '60s from Mississippi - Sardis, Mississippi - shout out to Sardis, Mississippi. My family migrated there just like a lot of black families in that area: they migrated there to get jobs, to get those factory jobs, that steel mill job.
I went to a Bulls game when it was still in Chicago Stadium before they built the United Center.
I'm from Gary, Indiana, and everybody's damn near at the poverty level. It's a rough city to grow up in, and it's a modern-day ghost town.
