GREATEST HITS OFF WAX: On Rappers Carrying Guns
This is a dangerous industry. It’s foul. With as many devils and vultures and hogs and wicked people that are involved in [the rap game], I think every [artist] ought to have a license to carry guns – felons or no felons. So off top, if [the police] pull a rap nigga over and he’s got a gun, shit, he’s probably got a gun because he’s scared somebody else with a gun is gonna try to do something [to him].
On “video models”
You know what I like to do when I get to my video set? I like to just fire all the broads that are already there. I just fire everybody, send ‘em all home. Shit, I’ll bring my own crew of bitches. I’d rather have a real live prostitute bitch on the set than some bitch that’s been fucking the director and got promised a spot in my video. (OZONE Magazine)
On Pimpin’ In the Music Industry
We’re talkin’ about pimpin’ and hoeing, [but] the biggest pimps are the record labels and the biggest hoes are these muthafuckin’ rap niggas. Rap niggas and entertainers are getting hoe’d more than any prostitute I’ve ever seen on any track or any bitch I’ve ever seen selling pussy. Muthafuckers get out here and do all the work and risk their lives, get shot, see their homeboys get shot, go to jail, all kinds of shit. Take all the risk and another muthafucker gets the lion’s share of the money? Hey, mayne, if that ain’t pimpin’, you tell me what is. (OZONE Magazine)
On Balance in Hip Hop
A lot of people attack music like the Soulja Boy music, but hey man, my kids love that. And “Laffy Taffy,” that was my shit. I liked that shit... We need fun records... That dude from the “Laffy Taffy” song, Fabo, that nigga is one of the most gangsterist niggas I’ve ever seen. He’ll beat a nigga to death if you fuck with him at the club. We need those types of records to balance out all the other shit. (OZONE Magazine)
On Media Criticism
I heard a little bit of criticism [of the album] from magazines that don’t understand our type of music, but all the magazines that do
understand our type of music – like yo’ book [OZONE] and the XXLs and The Sources, I ain’t hear nobody complaining... I heard people complain about how long the record was in Rolling Stone and Spin Magazine, muthafuckers that don’t know too much about our music in the first place, but hey, man, fuck them. We ain’t makin’ it for them. (OZONE Magazine)
On Russell Simmons
Last time I checked, Russell Simmons was a multi-billionaire, and he made his money off niggas saying the “n” word and cussing on records... If you’re a billionaire off rap music and you want us to stop cussin’, give us that billion dollars back and let us throw a party in that muthafuckin’ mansion you’ve got. Or forever hold your peace.
On Down-Low Brothers
It’s no gay-bashing with me. It’s just, be proud of what you are, instead of hidin’ in the closet. And if ya fuck boys in the ass, then don’t be tryna fuck with the girls, too, poisoning the pussy population wit’ ya shitty ol’ dirty-ass dick. (XXL Magazine)
On Going to Prison
I feel like I got put on the shelf, preserved, so I could come back later and do something positive. If ‘Pac hadn’t got out of prison, he might still be alive today. Maybe there was a worse fate out there waiting for me. (OZONE Magazine)
On R&B Singers
I ain’t out here dressing up trying to be sexy licking my lips like old gay ass Ne-Yo. Pussy dick-in-the-booty ass niggas wearing all that gotdamn lip gloss at their video shoots and letting niggas put makeup on their face. Yeah, I said Ne-Yo, you heard what the fuck I said. Niggas putting all that lip gloss on they fuckin’ lips looking like they’ve just been eating a pork chop sandwich with no hands. (OZONE Magazine)
On Rappers Lying
Everybody on these records are lying. Everybody is this big D-boy, these hardcore gangstas... Truth be told, we too blessed and we making too much money in this rap game to be going to war with each other. Truth be told, dont nobody want to fight nobody in this rap game because 98% of these dudes is cowards. (Hot 107.9 Atlanta) OZONE MAG // 31
