Which artist caught your attention early on?
[Lil] Wayne. I keep this in my bag and I don't go anywhere without it [pulls out a picture of him and Lil Wayne]. [Laughs.] It was fun. He hopped on another song. We was working way before that though. I had told my fans a long time ago when I had blue dreads, I was like, "Me and Wayne about to have a track." Me, Wayne and [Lil] Twist. Everybody was waiting for that shit.
Do you have a favorite Tupac song?
"Hail Mary."
On "Rack City/Love Scars 2," you said, "Tell my mama I'm sorry for the life I chose." Are there any regrets that you have in your life that you wish you can take back?
Nah, because life is a lot of experience. You just gotta learn, you gotta live and learn. You live and you learn. There's nothing you can really do. Like I don't wish I can go back and do shit. If it happened, then it happened.
What was the first record you ever wrote?
I didn't write it, but the song is called "Manu Ginobili." [Laughs].
