I Look At The Deejay Thing As

Nowadays Rap Artists Coming Half-hearted, Commercial Like Pop, Or Underground Like Black Markets. Where Were You The Day Hip-hop Died? Is It Too Early To Mourn? Is It Too Late To Ride?

Hip-hop Is A Vehicle.

Artists Look At The Environment, And The Best Artists Correctly Diagnose The Problem. I'm Not Saying Artists Can't Be Leaders, But That's Not The Job Of Art, To Lead. Bob Marley, Nina Simone, Harry Belafonte - There Are Artists All Through History Who Have Become Leaders, But That Was Already In Them, Nothing To Do With Their Art.

Once You're Signed To A Label You Compromise.

When I Look At The Arc Of My Career, My Focus Is On Lyricism, Right? I Own That.
