Notable Guest Quotes

"For me it's a thing of, like, going where not everybody would go, speaking the language of a culture that is in need of the gospel as well, that they really have a skewed view of church or what that really looks like."

"You have people who are, like, 'Hip hop is of the devil' and they can't worship to it and stuff like that.  And to those people I say, 'Yo, like, the Lord is pleased with what I'm doing.'  If you say you can't worship with hip hop music, then you're putting God in some sort of box.  Like, no, our God has no limits."

"My lifestyle is my worship and me being on this stage is my way of presenting the gospel to people."

"I get a lot of up-and-coming guys try to give me demos and the quality is terrible.  So I always tell them, 'I gotta be able to hear and understand, and it's gotta be pleasant to the ear.'"

"We'll record songs and then I'll go to Nashville and record and create even better songs.  It's just an aspect of always creating."

"If you don't have a home studio or a studio at the label where it's top quality and you have your engineers and producers with you, go somewhere that inspires you."

"Me and my DJ, we can adapt to any environment and still genuinely be ourselves."

"I always prepare (for live shows) the same way, with lots of practice, lots of practice, me and my DJ."

"I've always been an ambitious and driven person all my life.  Anything that I'm passionate about I give it my all and I go at it a hundred percent."
