If The Virgin Mary Had An Abortion,

My Earliest Memories Of Rap Music Was Mixed With My Earliest Memories Of Reggae Music. They Were Big Sounds Around The Way, Heavy Bass Lines, Strong Messages, Definitely.

I Want Each Album To Say Something Different And Be Accepted Better Than The Last One But I Don't Have Any Point To Outdo Any Particular Album Of Mine.

In The Past I Had To Deal With Issues That Hit Me As A Younger Man. As A Man Who Wasn't Married Who Didn't Really Have The Experience That I Have Now. Today I'm A Different Guy.

I Want You To Know Who I Am: What The Streets Taste Like, Feel Like, Smell Like. What The Cops Talk Like, Walk Like, Think Like. What Crackheads Do - I Wanted You To Smell It, Feel It. It Was Important To Me That I Told The Story That Way Because I Thought That It Wouldn't Be Told If I Didn't Tell It.

When Your So Focused On What People Say, How Can Your Really Be Focused On The Music? If You're Concerned With What Someone Says, You Aren't Working On A Real Record. You're Working On Something That's Just For Now, To Please People This Very Second... Because You Don't Believe In Yourself.
