“Biggie was to me the guy who was the best at painting the picture and making you visualize something, Pac was the best poet, and I feel like Jay Z is all of the above. Then Rick Ross is just, every line he spits is just perfect, and he's one of my favorite MCs of all time.”

“The touring life wasn't for me. I like to wake up in the same place most days. And I'm really into sitting behind a mixing console and listening to music all night and making music all night. I'm a studio rat.”

“You can call me a beat-maker, but I'm a record producer.”

“I've never been to Canada in my life.”

“I think it's just sad in this industry that sometimes the pressures of being successful make you say things that are untrue.”

“I always said that someday I'm going to sing on a record.”

“I would take one of 15 half-million-dollar cars I owned and go to the mall and spend that much money. Stupid, stupid stuff. It's like it didn't make a difference. They were ego investments. I would have been great with three or four cars. I didn't need a 117-foot boat.”

“My father didn't believe in my music. I don't blame him.”

“If people are given the right circumstances and the right track and the right melody, it's about the conviction. It's not necessarily about being a God-given virtuoso.”

“I'm crossing the EDM barrier.”

“I live in the studio and I'm inspired.”

“I've been around a lot of greats I seen in this industry that have problems, but the comeback can be that much greater.”

“I'm not the guy trying to be all up in the videos and be a celebrity. I feel like I'm going to lose a certain amount of my privacy if I do that.”

“I want to delve into the world of performing.”

“I've always taken it upon myself to be a pioneer or a leader, and create a different sound, not just go by what the radio is playing at the time.”

“It's rare when you stumble upon this amazing melody. We'd love to make a 'Let Me Love You' every time we go into the studio, but it's definitely a special one.”

“Shyne's my man. I've been talking to him and I was talking to him all through his prison sentence. He's always remained a loyal person to me.”

“Music has changed, but there will always be a demand for amazing music.”
