I never made beats to make beats; I only made them when there was a record to make them for. That's one of the things that has changed in hip-hop that's made me like it less. It feels much more like it's a producer-driven medium, where there are all these tracks that are completely interchangeable.

I don't do this for the money, I don't do it for record sales, I don't really care about that, I just want to make beats.

There's an open door now more than ever to be making any type of beats that you want.

I'm not so much into the beats. I'm more into the spiritual side of the music.

I want to make an album with just great beats and big vocals and just amazing lyrics.

I like the way remixes sound. Some of them are really creative.

Everything in my life has been about sound and making music, so Beats represents just that - the improvement of sound and the dedication to everything I've been doing from the day I started.

I definitely feel excited to be able to put really hard beats - like hip-hop beats - behind my music, more than I did before.

I try to create songs that are really massive and intense, but at the same time remaining honest and raw.

My brother makes beats, and I DJ.
