People can look to me as a teacher, but I consider myself a student of hip-hop.

I've learned how to look at things and not judge them, but respect them and use it in a way that people understand that I respect them, show them love and respect their reality.

Scientology is not a white religion. It is not just for white people.

I told my father to stop smoking around the age of two or three years old and he stopped smoking. So the relationship between the kid and the parent is very powerful, and if you give the kid the right information, it can be very useful to the family.

I'm forever learning and that's why I'm always able to create new styles and new dimensions of hip-hop.

Health has always been an important thing to me. I exercise and try to take care of myself, and drink a lot of water! And I push that to my kids so that they can carry on that same energy.

Hip-hop is supposed to uplift and create, to educate people on a larger level and to make a change.
