You can't cheat the game. You can't cheat the grind. You get out what you put in at the end of the day.
The way I make something out of nothing, I got that from my mama. That's 100% her.
I used to think I was ugly because I was the baby.
Anything I do, I'm doing it for a reason.
And I'm the type of person, if I ain't wrong, I'm gonna stand on that.
When I get bored with something, I'm done with it.
I am the type where I don't worry about anything else but how to top what I did yesterday. My main goal is to top what I did before.
People are unpredictable at the end of the day.
It's just the way I'm set up, being that once-in-a-generation, once-in-a-lifetime, once-in-an-era type of star.
It's just the risk that I take and the sacrifice that I make: Putting myself, my career, my family's peace of mind on the line just to do right by my fans. It ain't no gray area: You're either with that and willing to go out of your way to make people who contribute to your dreams coming true happy or you aren't.
I don't play the ugly game, I think everyone is beautiful and I see it in me now more and more.
I just had that mindset to never settle. That's a credit to my pops, too. He used to say 'the sky's the limit' every time we talked.
I'm pretty sure my expectations are higher than the average person's. It just sets standards.
Charlotte, it's what somebody from New York or L.A. would say is a small town, but it isn't. It's right in between being a small town and a city. It's more of a city.
Any '90s baby, The Rock or Stone Cold Steve Austin had to be your favorite wrestler.
Early on in my life, I got two older brothers; we used to listen to Eminem, 50 Cent, Lil Wayne.
I like pressure.
I didn't know of any rappers in Charlotte. Not to sound like I'm bragging, but I brought the music scene alive and shed the proper light on it. I took it to a whole other level when I started rapping.
I'm all the way hands-on when it comes to my videos.
No, I wasn't a bad kid. I was always intelligent, and strong-minded, and outgoing, like I am now.
