Everybody think they're famous when they get 100,000 followers on Instagram and 5,000 on Twitter.

I always wanted to be one of the hottest rappers.

I don't think I would change really anything about rap. Rap don't have no limits to it, and I like it like that.

I got into music when I was 12, 13.

I have a fan base worldwide, man. I think they're really down for me. That's how I got signed - 30,000 fans retweeting Rick Ross.

I think everybody from Philadelphia been shot at before.

I watch my YouTube videos over and over.

I'm not gone remix a record I don't got no love for.

I've always been rapping before I was making money off of it. Before I made a profit, I had always been rapping.

I think it's way harder when you have success, 'cause people tend to not treat you the same or look at you the same because they see the success or the money you make.

It's cool when people know you more, but I like people to treat me regular when they see me. I take pictures. I don't really be big on people looking at me.

Jay-Z ain't a manager; he owns a management company. He been through this; he been through the game for a long time, so he knows tactics in taking artists in certain directions we need to go in.
