I would not consider myself to be a quote unquote real New York rapper. I don't even like New York rappers.
I love 'Harry Potter' and JK Rowling - don't laugh at me!
I don't like new cars; I'm into vintage cars - there's a Jaguar E-Type in the 'Goldie' video.
I used to go to Saks, I would go to Bergdorf, I would go to Barneys, I would go to thrift stores in SoHo.
I chose to deal with the underdogs on '1 Train.' I could've got the biggest superstars in the rap game, but why do that when you can let the young boys shine?
New York gave me hell for that 'Purple Swag,' man. They didn't respect me until 'Peso.'
