I want to make theme-setting music, music that sets a theme without being cliche.

The song that's mostly changing my career or made the biggest impact on my career would be 'Catch Me Outside.' Mainly because it hit YouTube, and that was, like, my first-ever video, so people never really seen what I looked like or knew exactly what I was about, so that was, like, the first taste of what they got.

I don't like being categorized as a rapper. I make music; I don't just rap.

For me to work with someone, I have to know who I'm working with so I can learn how to deal with each other and try to help each other. At the end of the day, it really just comes down to building a genuine relationship. I think that's a very important factor in business.

I know I'm not a great writer. I'm an extremely gifted oral communicator, but when it comes to writing, I'm just a beginner.

When you start to develop your powers of empathy and imagination, the whole world opens up to you.

I'm very conscious that people dear to me are alive in my imagination - poets in particular.

I always say I want creative control. A lot of people don't think about that. And that's what every artist should think of - being creative and not just a puppet.
