“I want to say it's important that you vote, that you get out there.”
“My No. 1 key with fans is, honestly, to stay connected with them. I think it's important to talk to the fans online and respond to their questions. You know, live streaming, playing video games.”
“I'm an emotional person. I'm not going to deny that. If I feel a certain way, I'll express it on the track.”
“That's how things work: you be who you are, and then people like you. They gravitate.”
“There's no way I'm not gonna have a gun, 'cause you just never know what'll go down in Atlanta. But I'd rather be able to protect myself and have the right, and not have to think about the consequences if I'm just trying to protect myself.”
“Most of my influences aren't rap. I love Coldplay.”
“They treat you as if you are a different kind of human or life form when you are a celebrity - as if we don't breathe the same air, or we don't bleed the same - and I hate that. I really hate that.”
“I'm the outcast of the hip-hop game.”

“I'm like HBK. I'm like Shawn Michaels.”
“I feel like people just try and throw a shot at me just so I can respond.”
“I didn't think I would work for Nautica. I never thought in my life I would have a Sprite deal, never in my life did I think I would have a Target deal, ever.”
“Me and Uzi aren't friends. We used to be cool. It's not beef; it's just competition. That's all it is. We're not friends.”
