Rap is just to me very annoying.

I don't even really like rap music.

Sometimes I feel like rap music is almost the key to stopping racism.

The problem is that rap is so often a caricature of its own image. Nobody comes to the table with the seriousness of the effect that it can have; nobody is prepared for that.

I don't like rap music at all. I don't think it's music. It's just a beat and rapping.

Rap is just somebody getting something off his chest. That's all it is.

Rap was started by black people and, thus, is at the foundation of black culture. So people cannot always wrap their minds around someone like me being inspired by it. But if you listen to the things we're saying, they're authentically us.

Rap is from the streets and I'm from the streets. That's why a lot of people accept me.

Growing up listening to rap music, you almost feel like you should have haters. That's an important part of being a successful musician. It's a good thing, I guess.

I'm not really into rap.
