We're All Africans, Everyone - Black, White,

I Don't Have Time For The News Clippings. I Got My Own Mission.

Hip-hop Is The Streets. Hip-hop Is A Couple Of Elements That It Comes From Back In The Days... That Feel Of Music With Urgency That Speaks To You. It Speaks To Your Livelihood And It's Not Compromised. It's Blunt. It's Raw, Straight Off The Street - From The Beat To The Voice To The Words.

I Like The Way Hip-hop Is Now. It's Grown Up Enough So That It Can Get Involved With Politics If It Feels Like It.

I Want To Hear The Artist. I Want To Hear Them Give Me Something That I Can Relate To, Other Than The Fact That Everything's About Bragging.

When I Try To Sound Like The Contemporary Sound, It Never Turns Out That Way.
