You Gotta Eat Right, You

I Feel Like I Have Way More Resources, Way More Experience. I'm Better. But My Fans Romanticize The Earlier Stuff, And I Don't Think It's Just Like A Nostalgia Thing Of "he's Not As Good" - I Think It's Because That Earlier Stuff Was Aggressively Marketed As A Lifestyle To Them.

A True Artist Does Not Depend On Radio For Success. A True Fan Does Not Let Radio Determine What They Support

I'm Spinning Records And I Look Across The Restaurant And I See Somebody Who Looks Asian. And I'm Like, "yo, That Looks Like Yoko Ono." I'm Like, Oh, I Can Just Meet - That's Going To Be Great. Then I Look Carefully And I'm Like, "that's Not Yoko Ono, That's Bruno Mars." And It Was Bruno Mars. That Just Happened Recently. I Was Bugging Out. Because That Was Totally Not Yoko Ono At All.

As Far As Being On A Major Label, Some Labels Get It And Get What They Have To Do, And Some Labels Don't. I Don't Think The Label I'm On Necessarily Gets It, But I Think Over Time They're Gonna Have To.

I Think All Those Artists Are Artists Who Are Appreciated Because You Believe Their Words And You Appreciate Their Honesty In Their Music. If You Don't Appreciate The Honesty In The Music, The Beat Can Be Fly As Hell But You'll Never Give An Emcee Props.
