People are used to music that justifies street culture but something that's not touched on is why these kids act the way they act, live the way they live.

But I did go to music really early on, even when I was 4 or 5, I was responding to music probably in ways other kids were not.

Tell me a musician who's got rich off digital sales. Apple's doing pretty good though, right?

The best part of touring, still, is touching people's hearts and igniting my band and igniting the people into what you call a spiritual revelation is sound and emotion.

People gonna talk whether you doing bad or good.

Playback singing is fun and good money. But it's no big art really; only the film and record people glorify it with all those gold and silver discs given to singers. I wish I could take all of them to the goldsmith and draw the metal out.
