You can write a great country record and still be angry. Who's angrier than Toby Keith? He's angrier than the average 10 rappers.
I am a singer, not a full-on rapper.
I don't really like to write anywhere but my own apartment. I send a lot of text messages to myself as email when I'm not at home. My texts are usually like, "If I ever break up with my boyfriend I want to date a very angry rapper."
You got married recently to a rapper. It doesn't take them long to impregnate women.
I am a rapper. The reason why I was against the whole rapper title is because I know so many people who want to be rappers and they're not.
I didn't choose to be a rapper; it's just my talent.
My love of words, alcohol, and stage antics basically cemented me as a rapper, but it wasn't a career that I wanted to do. It was just, "I like to do all these things at one time."
LL Cool J was a rapper-turned-actor, and I also relate to him because he was sort of a ladies' man and had a female fan base, but yet he's a positive dude. You never read about him getting into trouble or going to jail.

Being a rapper is about being cool, but being a comedian, you're not supposed to be the coolest guy.
I actually think some of the rappers can help our image, because the thing Im concerned about is the NBAs image. I always want our image to be on the rise, and if the rappers can help young players get business-minded, then Im all for it.
There was this rapper from New Orleans, Mystikal, who when I hear his music, I hear myself. Whenever I wanna get hyped, I put on Mystikal.
I put everyone in my school on to Nicki Minaj before she blew up. I was obsessed with her and I was like, 'If she's the best female rapper then I've got to be better than her.
Big L is my favorite rapper of all time. He got killed quite a few years ago now but I think he's amazing and he kind of inspires me like his style inspires me. I don't think there's been anyone better since. I mean, Biggie Smalls is definitely on the top of the list but Big L is like the underdog, I like to give him the edge.
As a rapper, your verses are like a window in to who you are.
As a rapper, I don't freestyle. I used to freestyle when I used to get drunk, and it didn't matter.
I'm obviously not a rapper, and I don't have any claims to be one, really.
People get caught up in worshipping certain rappers, or they try to demonise hip hop by looking at what certain rappers are doin' in their lives.
