When You Shine Bright, Some Won't Enjoy

But You Have To Be Creative On How You Sell Yourself And Market Yourself.

I Like Collaboration Because, First Of All, I'm Good At Writing Lyrics. I Don't Know How To Make Beats. I Don't Play Instruments. I'm Not A Good Singer. So Even When You See A Solo Album Of Mine, It's Still A Collaboration.

What's More Condescending And Corny Than Someone Telling You How Much More Money They Have Than You And Telling You Basically, 'i Don't Care About Poor People,' Which Is A Large Part Of What You Hear Of Corporate Hip-hop On The Radio.

As Far As My New York Influence, One Thing I'm Proud Of In My Career Is, I Rep Brooklyn, New York All Day. But People Don't Look At My Music As New York Music. People Consider My Music Underground Music.

I Like The Fact That I Can Rep New York, But My Style Does Not - I'm Not Trapped In A New York Thing. I Can Do Art Songs With Other Artists And It's Seamless.
