If I Lost Your Respect...i'm Just Hope

I Want People To Follow Their Dreams, Yes But I'm Not Interested In Telling Young Black Kids How To Be Rappers I Want To Show Them That There's So Many Other Paths You Can Take, Besides A Rapper Or Basketball Player.

I'm Half-black, Half-white, So I Basically Put It Like This: I Can Fit In Anywhere. That's Why I Write So Many Stories From So Many Different Perspectives, Because I've Seen So Many.

I Always Feel Like It's Two Key Ingredients When It Comes To Following Your Dreams, Making Something Happen That The Average Person Deems Difficult. If You Truly Believe It, That's Step One. Step Two, Is, You Know, The Hard Work That Goes Along With It.

When You're A Rapper, Just A Rapper, You Have To Kind Of Settle For Whatever Comes Your Way - If A Beat Is Hot, You Wanna Rap On It, Period.

Usually I Start With A Beat, I Start Making A Beat, And My Producer Side Is Making The Beat. And On A Good Day, My Rapper Side Will Jump In And Start The Writing Process - Maybe Come Up With A Hook Or Start A Verse. Sometimes It Just Happens Like That. A Song Like 'lights Please' Happens Like That.
