People - especially white people - they want me to be a role model just because of the life I lead. The things I say in my songs, they expect it of me.
If I ever go to West Africa, it would probably be for a free concert. I would want to do something for the people there. Maybe we can make a whole event, the way Bob Marley would have done it. Just for the people. And if they climb over the gate, let them climb over the gate.
I have two main hair people I work with. They're always with me. I'm like, 'I'm bored! I wanna change my hair!' That's the good thing about a weave. You can do whatever with it.
Spend time with people who know how to use their days well. Just as iron sharpens iron, positive people will inspire you to be positive.
People gonna talk whether you doing bad or good.
My way probably won't work for most people but the more I got naked the more comfortable I felt.

Colleges are like old-age homes, except for the fact that more people die in colleges.
I paint mostly from real life. It has to start with that. Real people, real street scenes, behind the curtain scenes, live models, paintings, photographs, staged setups, architecture, grids, graphic design. Whatever it takes to make it work.
Don't matter how much money you got, there's only two kinds of people: there's saved people and there's lost people.
Some people seem to fade away but then when they are truly gone, it's like they didn't fade away at all.
As a performer I've played for 50,000 people and I've played for 50 people and I can tell you that it is harder to play for 50 people. 50,000 people have a singular persona, not so with 50. Each person has an individual, separate identity, a world unto themselves. They can perceive things more clearly. Your honesty and how it relates to the depth of your talent is tried.
