More Than Half Of All The Hip

For Three Years Between 16 And 19 I Was The Opening-act-for-the-opening-act-for-the-opening-act, You Know? And Then I Was On Tour With Ice-t, Stetsasonic, Epmd, Sir Mix-a-lot--legends--and Went On To Sell 160 Million Records. It Still Baffles Me.

I'm To Trying To Say I'm Something I'm Not. Black People Understand That. I'm Just Doing My Raps, My Way. Rap Is Black. I Recognize That And Respect That. I'm Just A White Guy Trying To Rap, And I Got Lucky.

To The Extreme I Rock A Mike Like A Vandal.

I Just Kept It Real And Had The Freedom To Do What I Want. It's Not Designed For Any Age Group. It's Not Made For Radio. There Are No Edits. The Whole Album Contains Explicit Lyrics But That's Because You Need It.

A Lot Of People Think I Was An Overnight Success, But I Was An Opening Act For Three Or Four Years, And Then I Signed My Contract With Emi. Then It Kind Of Blew Up Overnight.
