Nobody brainwashed me with God in my head or anything. I just saw this new reality, and I felt like I've been blinded, and I finally took the blindfolds off.
I've been working on my relationship with God, and when you work on your relationship with God, it gets to a point where you don't want to walk down the sinful road anymore.
The only reason skaters hang around this guy is because he's Lil Wayne, but they don't like him. I've talked to skaters; nobody likes Wayne as a skateboarder.
When I was on the 'Knock Madness' tour, I was just thinking about life; I started questioning God. I was praying a lot. I was just really emotional. I was going through a break up situation as well. And I just felt like I needed to be home. I was over the rap thing. I just felt like I wasn't getting the respect and credit that I deserve.
I am getting all this fame, but I don't absolutely know what I should rap about.
In my heart, I've always wanted to do right, but I never knew what right was... but it's weird: God reached down, He said, 'Boom! This is what you are!' and I was like, 'Whoa!'
I'm aware that I have a career. But, if I was the hottest in the game, songs all over the radio - let's say whoever produced made me super big. Like, that would be cool, but there would be something in me that goes, 'You only wrote the raps. You didn't make the beats. You didn't direct. You didn't do all that.'
I notice, a lot of white rappers sometimes, they'll feel like they have to be, like, almost aggressive.
The music I do and the fans I attract? I got crazy fans.
On the second verse of 'Tears to Snow,' I talk about rappers and the way they view me now, rappers in the underground world who I might've know for a little bit, or they might've opened a show for me. A lot of them talk crap about me behind my back, and they'll smile in my face.
I just want to get to that point where I'm able to fully create music that's good lyrically and quality-wise as far as the way it's knocking and everything.
Ollies are so simple, I don't do ollies. I do other stuff... I mean, I can pop an ollie but.
Everyone knows I'm weird.
Kendrick Lamar is not a whack rapper, not at all. Do I think he's a super-mega-lyricist? Not really.
My album, 'No Shame,' will give my fans an extremely real and heartfelt experience of what I have been going through in my personal life.
Trinidad Jame$ is the most garbage piece of rapper that has ever existed on the face of the earth.
The brain is so intricate. It can do so many things, and people sleep on it. It's not just a piece of meat in there - it can do so much.
I want to get to know God.
If God is real, and he did give a piece of Himself to us, it is our brain.
I'm not just a rapper. I like to produce music.
