If I Know Everything Around

When I Was A Kid I'd Practise Chopin On Piano - And I Love Chopin! He's My Dawg! Then I'd Go Out On The Stoop And Blast The Radio. I'm From New York, The Concrete Jungle. Hip-hop Influenced Me From Day One.

I've Learned That While I'd Be A Fool Not To Stay Open To The Advice And Experiences Of The Smart, Amazing People In My Life, I Also Need To Listen To What I Have To Say.

There Are So Many Things Where I Realize, Like, Simple Circumstance, Like The Simple Choice That I Made One Night To Not Do That And To Do This, One Night Could Have Changed Everything.

I Really Like To Live My Life In A Low-key Fashion.

I Do Feel Like I Owe Something, But Not To The Industry. When You Say "industry," I Think Of A Group Of People Who Don't Really Care Much About You And Treat You As A Commodity. So, In That Regard, I Don't Feel Like I Owe Anything. But The People Who've Always Been Supportive Of Me And Have Always Seen Me For My Greatest Potential-those Are The People Who I Feel Like I Owe Something To. I Feel Like I Am Their Voice. I Owe It Them To Represent Them In A Way That They Can Be Proud Of.
