I've always felt a confidence in what I do from the simple fact that I know I represent my own life.
We are all humans and all deserve the same respect and attention.
There will always be good and bad in every community.
Rapping about a surgery is something that makes sense for me to do.
To me, part of being an emcee is dedicated to speaking out about what's going on around us.
Muslims are the new mutants of today's society.
To have mentors and moguls like Russell Simmons and Chuck D pushing me forward and empowering my movement makes me all the more eager to continue pursuing my dream to make my mark on hip hop music and culture.
My philosophy has always been to stand with all countries and all humanity.
I don't have any problem with coverage of victims in France. My heart goes out to anyone who was hurt or killed over there.
I don't try to rap about or emulate the life of another person.
Representing the struggle that Muslim minorities go through today is something I personally experience. So I know that at the end of the day, I have a voice for many millions of people who don't have any representation at all.
