I`ve been approached by many different people, but I don`t really want to be known as a collaboration dude.

Please remember we all come from the same one and we will all return to that one, so there is no reason for fighting.

I think kids should have a mentor and a role model, but that they shouldn`t take one person`s opinion to be what we call final assessment or judgment about how life is supposed to be.

I see dancehall reggae and hip-hop as fused together, When I was a kid, they were the two kinds of music that spoke to me and said `Move!`

Dancehall is just like hip-hop in that it doesn`t always talk about bling; it talks about conscious issues.

Music is your own talent and is an important tool. Even if you don`t want to be a role model, get ready to be in the public eye. Energy is there, you just have to use it.

I do feel I have a responsibility to the youths. For real.

My lyrics come from my experiences growing up in life, trying to find out and express who I am. That`s basically it. I`m not trying to be a prophet or anything like that. I`m just reflecting on life.

Music tells you about the artist and what they were thinking about at the time, because the person has to think about it to sing it.

Sometimes you have to take a break from being a crazy kid. You can`t be doing that all the time. Sometimes you just have to pay respect to your own simple-ness.

I would like to work with anyone in the business who wants to give respect back to the Jamaican vibe.

When I got a job at a bank, I began writing my own songs about social change. I then got deeper and deeper into the music world.
