I can't change me and I can't change other people's thinking. All I can do is continuously get better. So if I'm doing that, even if somebody doesn't like me or respect me, I don't care.

I just know what an icon does, and that's whatever you want to do and it's trendsetting. You know? It's real cutting-edge.

I've been super-fresh since elementary school. I'd lay out all my clothes, my Jordans right there, I know what cologne I'm gonna wear, my boxers match my socks.

I've always freestyle-d and did random songs.

I never wanted to be a rapper. I want to be in the movies. I want to own buildings.

Harmony Korine is a Rocket Scientist who purposely went on a 8-year vacation to let everyone catch up.

I can remember being a kid and watching Vanilla Ice and it made me smile... I love it. I love that. I can remember seeing Vanilla Ice and then through time he stopped being Vanilla Ice.

Whoever's on TV, that's who's famous back in the day.

I love Tom Ford. I love Harrison Ford, too.

Regardless of anything I say, some people try to take the fact that I'm an artist away from me.

As a kid, my favorite adventures were to skip school and go into the sewage drains and talk to the turtles and open up packs of Topps Stadium Club baseball cards.

You can't make somebody buy an album. I buy people's albums though.

I love MTV. I watched 'Beavis and Butthead,' 'Wayne's World,' 'Yo! MTV Raps.' And they used to have music videos on there. When I got the chance to be on MTV, I took the first opportunity.

I want to stay consistent and drop an album every year, so in the long run, you can see that I'm an actual artist.

I don't represent anybody and I don't hold anything at such a high arc that I gotta manage by somebody's rule. I don't ever do good with rules.

Now am I flamboyant? Am I over the top? Maybe.

Vanilla Ice sold ten million records. For him to be on MTV, it made me feel like it could be done.

I hate Los Angeles. I hate traffic. I hate people.

To be truthful, when I'd be on the bus when I was a little kid, like fourth, fifth grade, we'd always be free-styling and playing around.

I'm not the average person so when somebody sees me it's going to be bipolar: it's one or the other, you're going to love me or hate me.

I didn't finish high school but I feel like if I was in college I could debate with anybody.

Everyone wants to label me, but I don't want to be labeled as a rapper or a movie actor.

You ain't gonna know about me by talking about the past. Haters care about that. My fans, they care about where I'm going.

My first tattoo was on my right shoulder/tricep, it says 'The City of H-Town.'

I constantly have people who quit their jobs just to go on the Internet and try to stop me at any and all costs.

I'm gonna be me. Always.

Radio and TV don't have the power like they used to. With the Internet, people can pick. You can't hide talent no more.

I drop videos off the cuff... I don't stop.

I was supposed to have a talk show on MTV.

I saw the EDM world and wanted to be in that more than the hip-hop world.

I've been playing basketball since forever. The highlight of my high school career was scoring 51 points with 13 threes in a game.

I'd like to be on the cover of Forbes for 12 months straight.

If somebody wants to get inside my brain and figure out what I'm chasing, what I'm after think Richard Branson, think Madonna, think Lady Gaga.

I've been waiting for the right opportunity to have a sitcom because I've been on TV like 10 times, but it was all reality shows, semi-acting like that.

I love country music.

It goes to extremes - from people saying I'm the best of all-time to people saying, 'I hate that white boy.' Who cares? At the end of the day, if people don't like you, they're not your friends anyway. They're not going to be supporting you by buying your tickets and CDs and clothes.

I'm not one of those rapper guys that spend nights in the studio. I hate being in the studio.

My name is whatever anyone wants it to be.

When I was growing up, like from 2003 to 2004, I didn't even go outside, I just watched '106 and Park' everyday. Reruns of it.

I've always had great ideas.

I don't even know how to deal with myself so I don't know how to make people happy. I can't even make myself happy.

I don't take... I mean I take money and I take life seriously, but I don't take something like music seriously.

I watched a lot of MTV growing up.

I want to own a hotel, like Donald Trump.

People started hitting me up on Twitter cuz I was getting millions of views on YouTube and WorldStarHipHop.com and they saw me on MTV with Soulja Boy.

I got a restless mentality, I got to move around.

Swisha House presented this vibe of candy-painted cars and big chains. I always had a fascination for flashy, expensive things.

I like to go one week with braids, and on the eighth day take it down, wash it, condition it. Then every two days wash it and condition it.
