I came back to the hood and got in those streets and started doing whatever it took for me to provide.

I was young and felt like it was opportunity 'cause they were moving units back then on the underground scene.

I was young and so eager to make some money as well as get exposed and show my talent.

With me being form the South, I wanted to make this album like a G Unit.

When Sinatra said, 'For my money, Tony Bennett is the best singer I've ever heard,' it changed my career completely. He was my best friend, and I was his best friend... but I was never part of the Rat Pack.

Money is not everything. We don't need billions and trillions of dollars.

When I hear the word 'disruption,' in my mind, I think of all these people in the middle who were earning a living. We will sweep away all that money they were earning, and we will move that to the people at the top.

The situation in the United States is becoming more dire for average ordinary Americans and the last thing we need to do is to spend money on death, destruction and war.
