I don't take anything for granted; awards and all that go with it are very nice, and it's nice to get a positive response, but for me, it's about the music. I don't make music to win awards. I make music for the people.

You don't want to make awards the reason you're doing things.

I don't set out to win awards. I don't think any musician does, but when you receive an award, it's an affirmation: it means that people appreciate what you do.

I don't set out to win awards. I don't think any musician does, but when you receive an award, it's an affirmation: it means that people appreciate what you do. Every award I have received is a confirmation of something I have done, and that motivates me to push a little harder.

I never knew I'd be in a musical, let alone win an award for one.

I don't live for the accolades. I'm more so about the music. Making it, and putting it out. Those are the two best feelings.

I have done so much for hip-hop and 'til this day, I haven't received any awards or any recognition for it.

I always see my music for its rewards rather than its awards. But I always thought if there was one award I'd want to win, it would be the Mercury.

I don't feel I have to acknowledge how I'm doing by an award.

My goal was never to win awards. Mine was let me get to a place where I don't have to work. I don't have to do anything I don't want to.
