"I just do what I do! You got to understand, I’m independent. So in Miramar alone I’m selling 100,000 easily. There’s a lot of people waiting for the album.

"The company had nothing… I was on the street broke, but the artists were cool because we promoted them well and produced their music. It was their faces on the album, their verses, and shows. It was all on them. We (producers) don’t get none of that, that’s one of the reasons I started rapping, I figured if all else fails, I got to have some kind of income PERIOD..."

On The Scene Interview: OnCue

"In regards to me… YES I am “middle class.” YES I am a “normal dude.” If you talk to anyone I know they’ll tell you that I don’t talk reckless or claim to have lived a life that you see on the evening news. I’m not like that and I’m a fan of Hip Hop and respect the culture enough to stay true to myself when it comes to my music and it’s my first love. When everyone meets me, I’m just a stupid, happy go lucky, fun loving kid from the suburbs who’s nice on the mic. I got my “stories,” but that’s a whole different topic..."

On The Scene Interview: Ciara

Submitted by Str8hiphop.com on March 30, 2007 - 2:05pm.
"I’ll be very honest. I think that we both have very different styles and I think that our music is different and I think the way that we perform is different at the same time I do see some similarities but I can just be who I am, I’m not trying to mirror anyone, I’m just being me. Hopefully as time goes on, people will stop making comparisons and see who Ciara really is and see the differences between us. But I would also like to say, I think Aaliyah was a truly beautiful, beautiful women and I would have absolutely loved to do something with her..."
