Quotes[]
- The only thing that I'm scared of is not livin' up to the expectations of Dr. Dre and Eminem.
- I'm not trying to save the world. As a musician and artist, it just ain't me.
- A man becomes as attractive as an attractive woman when he becomes successful and is publicly noted. Power is an aphrodisiac.
- I think it's easier for the general public to embrace me in a negative way. You have people who already have a perception of me that says I'm a bad person.
- I don't display emotions. I have every feeling that everyone else has but I've developed ways to suppress them. Anger is one of my most comfortable feelings.
- When you get hurt as bad as I got hurt, When I got hit, ether your fear consumes you or you become insensitive.
