I fear God. If my time comes, my time comes.

Always be true to you. But learn how to adapt, too. That's something I wish I did when I was younger.

I used to do poetry in elementary school. I used to just write.

I'm a weirdo, but everybody's weird in some kind of way.

'Imperial' is me attempting to reach my ultimate form and to introduce a lifestyle of truth to my fans, be honest with yourself, and you will grow, ULT.

If I have a message to send, I'm going to send it in the most creative and yet crazy way I can.

With 'Clout Cobain,' when I made the song, I knew what I wanted to say. But I was gonna say it in a way where people could understand it.

White man get money - stay rich, kids get rich. Black man get money - it's the countdown till, 'When is this brother gonna go broke?' I'm not going broke.

Love is always gon' be where home is, but it's also where hate it as well.

I never wanted to perform like a rapper.

Darkness is important. If you were having fun all the time, you wouldn't know what dark is.

I don't judge nobody.

I was the type of kid that wrote all over my shoes.

The thing about abuse is it's just a cycle of hatred. The person who is gonna abuse you has been abused, and he continues that same cycle of hatred.

When I was just straight-up rapping, I feel like everyone wasn't paying attention as much, but the moment I started singing - case in point, 'Clout Cobain' - it affected more people.

I started adapting, and that's how I've been able to stay afloat all these years. It's important to be adaptable.

People wanna escape the truth sometimes.

I grew up in Carol City, Zone 3, for 19 years, in a house with four brothers, a mother and a father.

'Nostalgic' was just all my influences and me just being like, 'Yo, I'm going to be the hardest one out of everybody.'

I'm not gonna sound like the next person. I could respect your sound, but I could also do my own - you feel me?

There's such a thing as good stress and bad stress. Bad stress is when somebody else stresses you out, and good stress is when you stress yourself out over something you want to accomplish, which makes you want to perfect it.

I just feel like nobody truly understands who I am as a person. They think it's one thing, but they get another. I feel like nobody fully comprehends who I am as a person, as a man, as a living organism in this world.

'Threatz' was when I stepped into my own as an individual and one of the first songs we put on SoundCloud.

I'm just going to express my opinion and try to change the way people think with the stuff I write or try to get deep into stuff that other people haven't got deep into.

I ain't gonna lie: I have dude fans; most of my fans are dudes.

I live more than a double life, honestly. I have so many personalities, I live more than a double life.

I like the way punk people perform better than rappers, because rappers suck at performing - no offense.

Raider Klan was crazy because we all had our own personalities and our own little worlds when it came down to this music. It was the first step to creating your own weird little universe.

When I started using SoundCloud, it was just becoming a thing.

My upbringing and my daily day-to-day struggles and emotions make up most of my music.

The best Christmas that l had was probably when I got my Xbox. When I first got an Xbox, it was, like, the very first Xbox when it came out.

I'm sponsored by Nike and stuff.

I grew up, like - since I had a lot of brothers, I grew up listening to Hot Boys, Goodie Mob, OutKast, basically all the southern albums, like Silkk the Shocker, Master P, Soulja Slim, and then it just elevated on when I started getting into music and I started listening to Nas and Jay Z and stuff like that and Lupe Fiasco and whatnot.

We're expressing ourselves through references to anime and things like that, but SoundCloud music is just music that happens to be on SoundCloud.

The fans, in their minds, they think once you signed a deal, you sold out. So, in staying independent, I keep my freedom, and I'm not selling out.

I'm a veteran at this point; I ain't no up-and-coming rapper. Up-and-coming been happened.

If you look at 'Threatz' and 'Parents,' then you look at 'Zone 3,' all of that is nostalgic.

I listen to Robb Bank$, not only because he is a South Florida native, but that's my homeboy. I listen to him frequently.

I listen to most South Florida rappers.

I've learned there's a difference between friends and associates.

I went from following people to being on my own. Once I was on my own, I watched people start liking me, and I watched people stop liking me. Everything was supposed happen. It was all supposed to reveal itself.

My parents were really into music. They would play the Funkadelics, Parliament, OutKast; they would just play that all around the house. They'd also play Isaac Hayes, Marvin Gaye, James Brown.

I'm not tryna save no one. I just hope my music helps, and I hope the message that's behind it helps people, you feel me?

If shoes are brought to my attention, and I like them, I'm going to rock them for a long time.

I've proved with 'TA13OO' that I'm versatile as hell.

You can't expect somebody to speak out on a certain subject. If they want to say something about it, then say something about it. But artists have a choice. It's their choice. I choose the stuff I talk about, but it's not my responsibility to do it.

People used to laugh at me like, 'Hahaha, you can rap? You? We don't believe it!'

Carol City has its hot moments, and it has its cool moments. If you were from one area of Carol City, people didn't mess with you.

I'm not saying I'm trying to be the best. I'm gonna be the best. The best me ever. To the point where I can't lose at being me. I can't lose that life.

I'm very optimistic about the future.
