When I think of CeeLo Green, I think about previous collaborations, like 'Tears of Joy.'

I've been wearing Reebok my whole life.

When I make music and I'm talking on records, it's like I'm painting a picture. In my mind, I'm seeing a film.

I believe I've always been so successful on the black market for a lot of different reasons.

Watching dudes come up is one of my biggest joys.

I embraced EDM from the beginning.

I'm making my money make money.

As I was finishing high school, 'Fresh Prince' was, by far, out front. The generation before me, it may have been the Huxtables, but for me and my homies, Fresh Prince.

I believe in building your foundation - if your foundation is not rich, then you are far from rich.

I keep my family involved in all business.

I'm a big chicken guy, and Wingstop chicken wings are my number one go-to, so I just got involved with the company. I purchased a few franchises myself. I like to consider myself a global brand ambassador.

Rest in peace B.I.G. He was the greatest and made incredible music.

I just love Wingstop.

Anybody that really know me know that I love to make a lot of content, make a lot of music.

As an artist, you find at different times you want to do different things.

At the end of the day, I'm the biggest boss. I'm self-made.

Are you the person who just wakes up, puts your T-shirt on and runs out of the house? Or do you wake up an hour early - get your mental notes together, fix you a little coffee... prepare yourself for the day and try to do something really great? It begins with you.

I'm a hustler. I'm the Boss.

Money doesn't make me - I make the money.

My mom's a hustler. She a grinder.

Really, every day is the perfect day to boss up. Every day that you wake up is a perfect day to boss up. It's all about continuing to put one foot in front of the next. That's what it's about. Whatever you think you're going through, just put one foot in front of the next.

If I quit all the things I loved cold turkey, I knew it would only be so long before I went back to my old ways.

Being your best can only enhance your personal performance.

I remember the first time eating my chef's Caesar salad. It was just like one of those moments in the movie theater when everything gets quiet.

I love the story of 'Lamborghini Doors,' a record with Meek Mill and myself - it came together when I went to visit him during his incarceration.

If you're a battle rapper on the block, the emcee battle challenger, not writing your rhymes could really hurt you. When you're an artist where maybe the focus is really the talent and the different things you bring to the game, I believe it's more understandable.

I used to eat big meals at 2 A.M. and base it on my schedule. But I don't do that no more.

Some experiences can give you a chip on your shoulder, but they also teach you the value of independence and looking out for yourself.

It's pretty much a given known fact in the industry that before I was successful, I wrote for other artists.

Every day, the approach to life changes. And that's what music is all about to me.

I created MMG years ago. My desire was to create a space where the most talented artists in the world could be nurtured and supported. With that came a commitment. I vowed to support these artists through the good and the bad.

Five years before 'Port of Miami,' I was to a point where I may have even felt like quitting... the style and the wordplay of my lyricism was more complex than what Miami was used to.

Where I come from - it's nothing to glorify.

I always made a few records in the past - 'Aston Martin Music,' 'Diced Pineapples' - that the ladies would always be able to appreciate.

I respect the Grammys, being a writer. But me being an artist representing hip hop? No.

I eat the way I want to eat.

A boss is all about good business, so start with everything that you can control and you can turn up that costs you nothing, then lay all the knobs out, look at all the controls, all the remotes, and just turn them all up. It don't cost you nothing.

Being a big guy, you face certain challenges. Over time, though, women found excuses to find me attractive.

My mom's the best.

Blast my record out the windows of your Honda Accord. And if anyone gives you grief, you look them right in the eye and tell them Rick Ross told you wealth begins in the heart.

I think we all have a right to bear arms, whichever amendment that is.

As artists, we are blessed to be able to make money but, on the same note, are held accountable for our federal tax obligations just like everyone else.

My father watched all the 'Star Trek' and 'Star Wars' that you could imagine, along with the martial arts. So I was into all that as a youngster, and I always rooted for the bad guy.

My advice for anyone looking to lose weight is to not make it feel like a job.

I was never good at math.

I realized that my success comes from doing the things I love most.

I love pears. Most definitely - it's a fact.

When Rick Ross made 'Hustlin',' Rick Ross also helped those producers become some of the biggest producers in the world.

My father wasn't there the majority of the time. My father, someone who I always honored and looked up to, had been in the military; he had been to war. I would hear stories about different experiences he went through, but as I got older, my father moved away.

I really savor the times of me and all my best friends and family members getting together.
