Hit-Boy

“Jay-Z called me onstage during my song that I produced for 'Watch the Throne?' That was surreal, man. One of those situations I'll never forget. I'll be able to show my kids the footage of when Jay-Z brought me onstage.”

“I'm trying to be like the old Roc- A-Fella and Bad Boy, influencing people culturally but having hits at the same time.”

“I had to learn how to think as a positive human being, before anything.”

“There was, like, a point where music was slow for me, like '09. I wasn't getting that much work.”
