Curren$y used to be my favorite rapper.

Where I am from, people are into designer brands, but not, like, the cool ones, just like any designer brand, and I wasn't that type.
I've always been a thrift store kid.
I want my impact to be legendary.
I know who Michael Jackson is, I know who Prince is, I know the Isley Brothers, all that. Still, I got my own thing going with this music.
I feel like I have something to prove. I'm just not this cool fashion kid that be around ASAP Rocky.
You really don't find too many good people. You really don't. Keep them around.
I want everybody to get money.
When you go out, go out with a bang, anything you do.
I'm getting into interior design.
I was the first to wear colored skinny jeans.
I want everyone to remember me as just a mogul.
A lot of my fans come from the SoundCloud platform.
You cannot be from Atlanta and not know who Gucci Mane is, period.
I'm the type of guy that always respect the older rappers who paved the way for us to get here.
I'm really into Bam Margera. I've met him twice now. He's, like, crazy.
I didn't have anything growing up.
It's all about the flow and the beat. Rap is more than just music now.
I don't like baggy clothes.
I feel like it's important for me to expand, to create my own label. With a label, I can just give someone the opportunity that I was given, you know? That's what it's all about, just helping.
As an artist, you always want to never forget where you come from.
I love women to death.
I'm an OG. I was an OG when I was 16. I was an OG when I made the decision I don't want to go to school anymore and start skipping to make music.
I didn't have Cartier. I didn't have Gucci, Louis, none of that.
Frank Ocean, he's the G.O.A.T.
