For What Is A Man,

I Respect Jay-z. I Like Him.

I Learned A Lot About What I Do With My Craft, How I Present My Music. A Lot Of Things About Him Were Very Much An Influence On Me And Everybody Else. Once You Get In That Fold And You're Around It, You Get To Experience Something That I Don't Think We'll Ever See Again. There Will Never Be Anybody Like Frank Sinatra. Ever.

I Believe In Criticism.

You Know, My Grandmother Used To Say, 'while I'm Down Here Planning, God's Up There Laughing.' I Guess The Thing With Most Things That Are Worthwhile Is That You Can't Give Up Easily. You've Got To Hang In.

I Had This Talent For These Stupid Little Teenage Songs. I Just Couldn't Get Anyone To Sing My Songs, So I Had To Sing My Own Tunes. ... The Thing Is To Be Able To Outlast The Trends. ... They Are Actually Manufactured Entertainment Groups. They Are A Product Of Technology. What You Are Listening To Is Technology.
