Hip-hop isn't as complex as a woman is.

The beautiful thing about hip-hop is it's like an audio collage. You can take any form of music and do it in a hip-hop way and it'll be a hip-hop song. That's the only music you can do that with.

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.

Even an independent label is looking for a hit, they're not looking for a record that's not gonna do well.

I listened to a mind joint, and I wanted to do my own version of it, and what you hear on my mixtape is my take on what the whole CD sounds like.

A lot of these people, these program directors, just like anybody else in the world, even though they're supposed to be leaders in the world, they're followers. They follow what they think someone else is doing, instead of trying to blaze a trail.

But it becomes disrespectful when the artist's process is not respected.

I met Mos Def around that time but I didn't hook up with him until I was about 17 or 18.

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'd like to work with Outkast, I'd like to work with RZA, I'd like to work with Timbaland, York, a whole bunch of people.

But you have to be creative on how you sell yourself and market yourself.

I think music sharing of any kind is great.

I think its man's nature to go to war and fight.

I will never do a record without some sense of responsibility.

People consider Black Star a great album, and I think it's a classic album. But the fact is, both me and Mos Def have made better albums since Black Star.

But Rawkus is integral to what I do, because the cats who started Rawkus are the first ones who really saw my vision, and gave me a platform to get it out there, so I'm definitely totally grateful for that.

Fortunately, artists can live off their works, if you're creative at how you do it. If you just depend on the videos and the radio, you're at a loss.

Rawkus isn't closed, they just lost their deal with Geffen.

I'm not looking to set a standard... but, I believe I have offered a challenge to others with my work.

Hip-hop is a vehicle.
