Once I get into the locker room, I turn on stuff to get me hyped up. Mainly, it's a lot of rap music.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I got into high school and I was rapping, it was the attention I was loving. It was so hype.
I am obsessed with rap music - it's such a big part of my life.
It must surprise people that I'm such a rap fan, but it's true. Sometimes, just staying in, putting on some rap music, and letting loose is all I need to have a good time.
Usually, when I'm rappin', I'm creating a big story or a concept song that sounds like a movie to me.
I don't only like rap music. There's everything from R&B to crazy gangster rap, hip hop... everything! But it all blends together nicely. It's like a magical music rainbow.
My process is walking down to the locker room, laying everything out to how I like it. I'm very particular about setting up my bags and my dressing situation. I love to pull out that portable speaker and blare music even if nobody else likes it. To me, its just keeping everything the same every single night.
A lot of rap music can get repetitive.
You get people who rap about stuff that they don't do all day long. Half those guys, you hear them on the radio, and then you meet them, and you're like, 'Wow. They're so sweet.'
When you do rap albums, you got to train yourself. You got to constantly be in character.
I look at rap as an opportunity to act. My head is full of different characters - in each song I'm auditioning a character.
