I'm probably not as big of a hip-hop fan as people may think. I'm not up on all the artists and know all their stuff.

I'm a huge hip-hop fan from way back in the day.

I'm gonna try and change the course of hip hop again.

I feel like I changed hip-hop.

It feels different.... When hip-hop was beginning for me, people weren't making the kind of money that they make now. It was for the love of doing it and having fun with it.

I love hip-hop and you can't tell me I'm not a hip-hop artist.

Music changes, and I'm gonna change right along with it.

I am a hip-hop fanatic, and rock fanatic.

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.

I want to plug back into the hip-hop audience. Whether it be fans who grew up watching 'Yo!', or people who have become familiar with the culture via the Internet.
