All I can say is that I've had too many people in the hip-hop industry really like what I'm doing. I know where I'm coming from, and the album speaks for itself.

That's the reason why I'm making albums. That's the reason why I love hip-hop: It's a challenge every time.

I'm not in this for the money because if I was, I would have jumped out after our first album.

But when our first album came out, I didn't think it was going to sell a lot of records.

It's a shame in a way that people come and go with one album.

I think the record industry has gotten to be more about labels wondering what the new single is rather than labels nurturing artists. It's gotten away from making a full album of music that someone would want to listen to all the way through.

An album is a thing you take time out and go work on.

I can see that if this was an album done 10 or 15 years ago we could see we were moving on to some place else.

I've never been the type of person to jump up and throw out the album without it being what it's supposed to be.

The whole experience of getting an album from an artist you like and listening to it from beginning to end is sort of gone. Now it's piecemeal.
