“You have to experience life, make observations, and ask questions.”

Good art provides people with a vocabulary about things they can't articulate.
To me, the job of the artist is to provide a useful and intelligent vocabulary for the world to be able to articulate feelings they experience everyday, and otherwise wouldn't have the means to express in a meaningful and useful way.
I can't control what people think. I'm not trying to manipulate people's thoughts or sentiments. I write all the time. You have to experience life, make observations, and ask questions. It's machine-like how things are run now in hip-hop, and my ambitions are different.
Focused. I'm a hustler. And my hustle is trying to figure out the best ways to do what I like without having to do much else.
