Don't Just Give Me An Advance. I

I Already Had Three Strikes Against Me. One, I Have Light Skin. Two, I'm From Miami, Which Wasn't Getting Looked At At The Time. Three, I'm Cuban. But Now, I've Made Everything That Stacked Against Me Into A Virtue.

As Far As My Single Selections, Over The Years It's Been A Very Essential Part Of My Survival Tactic, But I Have No Problem Being Able To Jump On Records With Whoever People Think Is The Rawest Rapper In The Game Or Number One Or King Or Whatever They Wanna Name Themselves, To Be Honest With You. It Doesn't Affect Me, 'cause That's What I Come From; I'm Comfortable In That Zone. But I Don't Wanna Make Hood Music, I Don't Wanna Make Street Music, I Want To Make World Music, Global Music, International Music.

I Started Doing Shows In Places That I Couldn't Pronounce, Didn't Know Existed, And I've Seen People That Didn't Speak English Or Spanish Rapping To Every Lyric And Singing To Every Hook. I Said, "this Is The Type Of Music That I Want To Do."

The Thing With Me And Endorsements Is It's Harder For Me To Get Endorsements Because Of The Simple Fact That I Want In.

I Never Worry 'cause People Always Try To Categorize Me. "oh, That's Reggaeton." "oh, He's A Latin Rapper." "oh, He's Crunk." "oh, He's A Southern Rapper," Or, "he's A Club Rapper." As Long As They're Listening To The Music And They're Talkin' About It, One Way Or The Other, That Means I'm Doing Something Right.
