When I'm Lovin' These Hoes, There Ain't

I've Gotten My Personal Life All The Way Intact And Made Sure That It's Straight. Without That, You Have No Foundation. Your Building Is Going To Crumble.

I'm High Off The Indo Creepin' With The Quickness To The Cut, Bust One To His Head While He Munches On That Donut.

It's Entertaining To Watch Somebody Break My Music Down Or Explain What He Thinks I Was Thinking During The Process Of Making These Records. Because... He Has No Idea.

When I Think Of The Future, I Think A Lot Of Quincy Jones And How He Is An Inspiration. Look At The Quality Of His Work Over So Many Years. He Didn't Even Make His Best Record, 'thriller,' Until He Was 50. That Gives Me Something To Look Forward To. Nothing Pulls You Back Into The Studio More Than The Belief That Your Best Record Is Still Ahead.

I've Looked At Pictures That My Mom Has Of Me, From When I Was Four Years Old At The Turntable. I'm There, Reaching Up To Play The Records. I Feel Like I Was Bred To Do What I Do. I've Been Into Music, And Listening To Music And Critiquing It, My Whole Life.
