To me, it isn't tight sweaters. That's not what rap is. That's not hip-hop at all. Every phase went through changing up their dress styles and all that, but since Run DMC came out, it's been baggy jeans.

Hip-hop is all over the planet.

I haven't done rap... I can't do that too well.

I don't know, I feel like as time has gone on, hip-hop has become really redundant and repetitive.

I have to be able to rap. I don't have the look. I don't have the typical slim-dude, fancy-clothes look. That's not me. I have to be able to rap - there is no other choice, or else I get eaten alive.

Hip-hop is getting to the point now where they are going to start sounding like Al Jarreau or Bobby McFerrin or some of the other poets. Some of the better rappers can rap real fast without even melodies. It'll get to that same point.

I don't ever claim to be a hip-hop head.

Hip Hop has become real constrained. The creative juices and creative flows have been diminished.

A lot of rap music can get repetitive.
