I'm the one in the band that said I'm not going on tour unless we do a record.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I know if I don't tour people will forget the record and you run a high risk of the record failing.
I'm just not going to tour. One point I want to get across to everybody is that I'm still going to make records and I may still do some events. It's not the last time I'm onstage. It's been a part of my life for too long to quit everything. I have done it since the '80s, and I think it's time now to maybe see if I can live without that part.
I'm basically always on tour.
I'm lucky that I enjoy touring as much as I do. I'm not going to make a living just making records.
I've toured the U.S. every single year and I've put a record out every single year whether it was on a major label or not; that doesn't make any difference to me.
I basically say I'm on tour all the time, because one tour goes into the next.
I constantly tour, even when I don't have a record out.
I tour whether I have album out or not. I tour more than any other hip-hop artist.
So we are not doing the traditional album, tour, album, tour, album, tour anymore. We're going to tour when we want to, regardless of whether we've got a record out.
I'm going to go out on tour when I feel like going on tour.
