If you're buying an album because of the face on it, you're stupid.

There are days that I wake up and I complain, and when I complain I pinch myself and say, 'that's for complaining.' Not many people can do what they really like in life.

I'm so proud of who I am and where I come from and who my father is.

And people coming up asking for autographs, there's only one time when it kind of bothers me: when I'm eating.
