Nearly every black man faces an unacceptable level of violence in this society. I’m not different. Money can shield you; it can protect you. But it doesn’t make you white.
I feel safe in white because deep down inside, I’m an angel.
Sleep is forbidden. When I’m working, I’m a machine and I don’t look at other people like they are human.
One of my weaknesses is that I actually have a conscience.
Bad Boy Entertainment did not shoot anybody. I didn’t shoot anybody.
Never is my life have I ever experienced anything as crazy as this.
I want to convey how beautiful it is to close your eyes and dream. And then to open them and make that dream a reality.
All I’ve been trying to do all my life is to make great music.
It just gets draining on a person being in the papers every day. So I was like, I’m gonna come back here. I want to talk to all the people, the fans. I want to let them know how much I appreciate all their support.
I’ve always been a daydreamer.
I miss my kids sometimes and that can get me down when I’ve been away working, but then I wake up and recognize how incredibly lucky I am. Spending time being down is less time out there achieving and enjoying.
Gotta be more than grabbing nines to buck tin in, gotta be more than just to lust women, gotta be more than platinum Rolexes.
I’m the definition of half man, half drugs.
We value-packs, you all small fries.
You should do what we do, stack chips like Hebrews.
Picture all the money that I’ve gotten off tours. Now picture me plotting for more.
Put up your guards, keep faith in God, I promise you all the world will be ours.
I got a chance to have my dream come true, and I wanted to make sure I made the decision as to when I dropped my last album. If I don’t feel like this album is an incredible piece of work, then I’m cool with the albums I’ve done. I don’t have to put out another album.
I’ve never really taken more than four days off, so it was a lot for me to go away for three-and-a-half months. I went all over Europe. I walked on a whole bunch of beaches and I did a lot of thinking.
When I decided I wanted to be an actor, I said I wanted to work with quality actors and directors.
I’m a big Backstreet Boys fan. I always give y’all shoutouts. I love the things y’all do.
