I didn't think of rap with that type of south feel and that look and the hay and all that.
People tend to lock into one thing that you do that they consider to be better than the last one.
Leave my diapers moist in the back seat of your Rolls Royce
Everybody's slow right now, there's nothing happening musically, everybody's all on cable television and being manipulated by all the television right now, what's on cable telling people what to listen to and stuff.
I'm not against women. I'm not against men. I just write about me telling my side of how I would say something.
The beats change, I mean you got a lot of artists out there advancing new sound, new technology, new beats everything sounding very futuristic, so I feel it would have been boring for me to do another hip-hop record.
I mean the world is a place where it feels like a woman has to go out everywhere in society, you have to buy her and cook her a meal and stuff.
I'm one of those artists that people take my music without my consent. People love to snatch my music and do things on their own. You got people that put me on beats I never rapped on. I just feel that it's a bad thing.
I always buy something to make myself motivated. It's good to feel that you can buy something and motivate yourself. That's what I do, just buy stuff. I like to buy something new and then record.
I had BEEN making futuristic records way before a lot of the groups that came out, but now everybody is running to make their albums sound new, but it sounds too made up.
But still at that particular level of commercialism I listen to those projects I still hear some stagnation in a lot of the stuff.
I think people get mad because I make more direct records.
I think Missy Elliot is pretty creative, I mean at least trying to take it to the future.
So it's like the underground world no longer exists economically cause they're not giving money back to their supporting artists.
Everybody's still in the 70s and 80s musically, still making remakes.
I'm not really entertained anymore, everything sounds the same. We have a crisis right now of innovative music. I'm probably the only person left trying to do something different and brand new.
Certain songs I feel different people should be on different tracks, you know it's emotional. I put myself into characters for certain records.
I write a lot of songs about my impressions from a man's point of view.
I think I write more outspoken than the average rapper.
I thought of rap I thought of Grand Master Flash and I thought of about what they went through.
I've done so many hip-hop albums already I got tired of just hip-hop.
