L.a.'s Always Been Good To Me.

You Know The Things I Went Through As A Youngster, Coming Into The Business, All The Good, The Bad And The Ugly That Came. I'd Had A Rough Life. I Grew Up Single Parent. My Mom, She Was Like A Father To Me.

I Think That, Right Now, I Am Travelling In Many Different Directions In My Mind, On Where I Wanted To Be. So Much Is Wantin' To Go Back, But I Still Gotta Move Forward. But I Think It's Just That I'm My Worst Critic At All Times, You Know? And When I Make Somethin', It May Be Five Or Ten Cuts Later Before I Actually Call It What It Is. I've Always Been That Kind Of Artist. I'm Gonna Put Myself Through The Sweat For It, Because I Think, As An Artist, That's What Made Me Iller, Is The Fact That I Didn't Wanna Just Put Out Anything And Everything. It's Just A Process, You Know What I Mean?

As You Keep Shooting The Ball, You Become A Better Basketball Player.

I'm Not An Artist That Makes Singles, I'm An Artist That Makes Albums, And It's A Totally Different Thing.

When You Devote Yourself To Being An Artist, You Have To Stay On Your Craft And Always Try To Get Better And Better.
