When you feel sad, it’s okay. It’s not the end of the world. Everyone has those days when you doubt yourself, and when you feel like everything you do sucks, but then there’s those days when you feel like Superman. It’s just the balance of the world. I just write to feel better.
I’m 21 years old and I think that I’ve got a lot of perspective in life.
Treat it like your last night. Even if you broke, spend tonight like your cash right.
If life a joke then I’m waiting for the punch. You all about the beef but me, I’m bout the bun.
I always thought I’d look corny in the type of rap video in the club with girls and all that type of stuff. I just didn’t think I could really pull that off. We always think it’s more fun and better just to go outside the box and to use our videos to show cool concepts.
Stand by those who stand by you.
They told me never fall in love, It never works out in your favor. You way too young and right now that’s just human nature.
Sometimes I see the world for how f-ked up it really is. I tell myself I’ll be the one to make a change in it. I could die tonight; not make it to the sunrise, then I couldn’t hear the pain in it.
Music is what I love, take that away from me and I really got nothing.
If I had a Salvador Dali painting, I would cuddle it to sleep.
With ‘Blue Slide Park’ I wanted to have a number one album, and I did do it, so I’m not mad at it, but that was its goal.
Sometimes it’s hard to pick right from wrong. The best thing we can do is go with our heart and hope it all goes well.
I just like to sing for people who have lost love.
I’m gonna make music, and I’m gonna capture every aspect of being a human being. That’s really all I’m trying to do. I think that artists and pop culture identities are used to simplify what it means to be a human and pigeon-hole people into looking up to one role model.
I’m addicted to something at all times. Like, it’s always music, but maybe sometimes it’s a pair of pants or something else. That’s just how my personality works.
My ideology was, if I just make very happy music, very happy music, then people will forget about whatever their problems are. I will forget about my problems.
I’ve been listening to the old school hip-hop stuff and rock like The Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
I think that with the Internet, it has given a lot of people the opportunity to get themselves out there to the masses. But it’s easy to group everyone that’s on the Internet together. I try to cross and jump around between genres and different styles, kind of find my own niche.
When I was a kid, hip-hop had that effect on me, it was escape and it showed me a different way of life.
At first you’re doing it for yourself, it’s about what sounds good to you. It’s about expressing yourself. Then you get comfortable as an artist and you find yourself and people get familiar.
