When I Was A Kid, My First

I Grew Up In New York City In The '80s, And It Was The Epicenter Of Hip-hop. There Was No Internet. Cable Television Wasn't As Broad. I Would Listen To The Radio, Hear Cars Pass By Playing A Song, Or Tape Songs Off Of The Radio. At That Time, There Was Such An Excitement Around Hip-hop Music.

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.

Right Now I'm Taking A Break From Hip-hop Documentaries. But I Would Do It If Things Lined Up.

At The End Of The Day, My Sole Goal, When I Go Into Any Scene, Is To Try To Be As Honest As I Possibly Can, And Then Everything Else Is Second. The Most Important Thing For Me Is To Just Be As Honest As I Possibly Can.

A Tribe Called Quest Music Was So Inclusive, So Conscious, It Brought Such A Community Together.
