If something is on my mind, I've got to get it out. I can't front, for lack of a better term.

When I started talking to my therapist, we hit the source of my PTSD and the trauma that came from the things that occurred when I was younger - issues with my father and how that may have affected me.

Be nice to everyone you meet, including janitors, receptionists, and everyone.

Best way to measure your passion is simply asking would you do it for free? If money is your motivation, then it's not really your passion.

Your passion is that one thing you can't stop thinking about, that thing you wake up thinking about in the morning, go to sleep thinking about at night, that thing that you would do for free!

I think black men especially should go to therapy and seek out mental help, because we need it. Even if you don't think you need it, we need it.

There's nothing like seeing your floor clear because you organized and cleared the space of all that clutter. That's how I feel when I go to my therapist.

I go to a therapist every week.

Black people are the only ones told to love our oppressors. I hate that. We've been loving our oppressors for a long time, and nothing has changed - that love has to be reciprocated.

I think, in a lot of ways, Kanye's superpower is his weakness - if you tell him he can't do something, he's going to go hard at it.

Kanye is always going to be Kanye. He is always going to be outspoken. He's always going to say exactly how he feels.

Contrary to popular belief, all I want to do is empower people.

I grew up in a rural area. Books are what helped me transcend my circumstances.

Self-help is something that I've always been into. I thought I was going to be a psychiatrist.

You have to grow and evolve and look towards the future.

I'm a slightly obnoxious person.

I think social media is painting an unattainable picture of perfection.

Rational anxiety is when you're aware of the source of your anxiety. Like, if I have to host an award show or talk to millions of people on the radio, I'm going to feel anxious, and I know why. Irrational anxiety is when I'm leaving CVS, and there's a car behind me, and I'm wondering if he's following me home.

All I have are my experiences, and I like to share my experiences to see if people could learn from them.

I love when white people use their privilege to combat prejudice.

Early in my career, I was only being dissed by Chingy. Now, I'm being dissed by Eminem. Life is great.

It's always cool when you get immortalized on records. I am just happy that I have gotten to the level where rappers who can actually rap say my name in records, regardless if it's a diss or not.

If I see a police officer behind me, and I can pull over into, like, a shopping center or something, I do it.

We honestly shouldn't be paying attention to nothing Kanye West says until he actually goes out there and gets the help we all think he needs. That's what keeps these stigmas about mental health and everything going - we act like it's a joke.
