Women don't like advice. They don't want you to fix their problems, they just want you to listen. ↗

Honestly, I don't listen to nobody else's music but my own. It's kind of like sports to me. You don't see Kobe Bryant at a LeBron James game - he just works on his own game. And that's what I do. I only listen to me, so I can criticize and analyze and all those things. ↗

I believe music should reflect yourself in some way and not just yourself at the given time. I feel that when you die or when you're going, someone's supposed to listen to that music and know everything about you. And I just try to get that across. ↗

I get sick when I think about someone going to iTunes and downloading two songs off our album. It's not meant to be listened to that way. ↗

Difficult as it is really to listen to someone in affliction, it is just as difficult for him to know that compassion is listening to him. ↗

A lot of journalists like to suck up to celebrities, and then as soon as they're a safe distance away at their computers, they take shots. But that's the way society has become, especially in pop culture. ↗
