Quotes

Whitey Ford Sings the Blues (1998)

• Gotta kill these pains
  Or blow out my brains
  To free me from these chains
  I'm trapped in this physical hell
  To walk again I just might sell my soul
  And I'm only twenty somethin' years old
  • "Painkillers"

• So if you've had enough
  and are ready for your stand
  I'll be waiting with
  the stone that's in my hand.
  • "Stone in My Hand"

"xxlmag.com interview" (2009)

My eventual thing is like hopefully cats will really recognize that everything I’ve done that they considered outside of hip-hop, really was hip-hop at the end of the day and that maybe at the end of the day, I would love to be the guy that killed the word "genre".

"Hill-Man Morning Show WAAF interview" (2009)

My main beef with what's going on right now is this freaking autotune stuff.. It's really ignorant, I don't even get it..It's like, you know my dog could bark into a microphone and I could get it to sound like Lil' Wayne.
