Positive Doesn't Mean Unflawed: It Means Human

I Heard Q-tip On The Jungle Brothers' Song 'the Promo.' It Was Very Exciting. It Was Very New. The Music And The Culture Around Hip-hop Was Evolving. I Think There's An Emotional Quality To Their Music And There's A Vulnerability To The Music. For Me, A Tribe Called Quest Was My Beatles.

Being No. 1. It's Talked About All Of The Time In Hip-hop. 'i'm Still No. 1! I'm The Best! I'm The Greatest Of All Time!' It's The Same Mentality In Sports.

I See These Other Actors Come Up With This Tough-guy Personas And Now When They're On Talk Shows They're All... But That's Not Really The Way They Are. I Probably Could Have Used A Little Bit Of That. At One Point I Was Labeled "the King Of Dumb White Guys." I Was Offended By That When I Was Younger, But I Understand What That's From, So I Was Like, "only A Genius Can Play A Fool." But I'm Very Aware Of That, And I'll Play Into It And Use It However I Need To Use It.

If My Son Was An Actor I Would Tell Him, "don't Let People Know As Much About You As I Let People Know About Me." Because I Think Professionally, It's An Easier Road. That Would Be Something I Would Tell A Young Actor. But It's Cool.

Each Environment Is Different, Each Job Is Different, And Each Realm Of Creativity That They Give You Is Different. You Try To Do The Best You Can And Put As Much Time Into It As You Can, But Different Jobs Have Different Circumstances Come About.
