We're all different and I respect my difference. I just try to be myself at all times. As long as I do that my music is always going to be different.
I don't even really understand that concept of someone being 'smart' or someone else being 'smarter.' I think that except for the obvious special cases, we're all equal.
I really enjoy doing music because it's a challenge to try to reach that frequency and connect with people and get them tuned to what you're talking about. I definitely respect and enjoy that challenge.
My main concern is making the connection with my listeners and making records that the whole world can sing. That's what makes me happy.
I think L.A. is L.A. I can go anywhere in the world and I'll just say I'm from L.A. But when I'm there I gotta say I'm from Carson.
I treat all my projects the same. They're all time capsules of where I am at the time and what I'm thinking about.
I'm just a fan of all music. My family owned a record shop so I grew up taking it all in on a daily basis. I'm not a person that needs to listen to just five good artists at one point. I love whatever is dope. We all can feel what's great.
I try my best to be honest. A lot of the greats before me did the same and what you come to find out is that, when you have the opportunity to share your words with millions of people, you're not the only one who had that experience. That's the beauty in it.
I'm not extra'd out. I got a cool little vinyl collection.
These Days I'm feeling real good.
I'm really focused on These Days and I'm trying to take it as far as I can - I feel like it's a strong body of work. I just want to give it the ame kind of attention I give all my projects.
I got plenty. You can have all my light, my shine. I got plenty. All my boys here, we working being creative.
I like to practice being still and I feel like that promotes a lot of positivity.
The universe bends to a still mind, peace be still.
[Positive mental attitude] is a practice, you gotta practice. I practice being still.
I'm like Donatello. For real. You probably want to come play your joints for me get my condolence.
People always known me for rappin'. So I guess that maybe just hindered me, like "oh well, I mid-as-well go long term with it."
Not even battling but just really known for rapping. Like I had songs up on Soundclick first, take it back.
I dunno, around 11th grade, 12th grade I was just like "yeah. This is something I want to do". I was always known; I was always the rapper.
I wasn't really sold on being an artist until high school, my senior year. I was going to do the college thing originally.
You had to look at it as sales, as costumer service. Costumer's alwasy right, you know? Service with a smile. Those type of things so it's just kinda in me. In my DNA.
I've been thinking about that a lot too lately, These Days. I think it's becasue I grew up in retail, in costumer service. I grew up having to talk to everybody, having to sell to everybody so now that I can just sell me, it's fun. It's not even a sale, it's really just me being me.
Me personally, I just wanted to do that to capture These Days.With DAY-lyt.
106 & Park, Freestyle Friday, that was real pivotal. I feel like he has the right to do that, he comes from that era so he has the right to do that.
I've been watching battle rap since that time period when Cassidy was hot, Murda Mook and Lux first when at it. That was a very pivotal time in hip-hop.
