Back in the day, when the D.J. would be playing a record, I'd be on the mic trying to hype up the crowd. So once Public Enemy became a rap group, I decided that that's the role that I wanted to take on. I wanted to be the one that was hyping, because I've always been good at it. I can hype up any crowd. ↗

One of the first rules of playing the power game is that all bad news must be accepted calmly, as if one already knew and didn't care. ↗
