If I see somebody that's doing something wrong, I'm like hey, you don't need to be doing that, and I'm going to talk to them.

Some of the kids right now are out there on the street now. Some of them are in the penitentiary, some are in jail or prison for robbing or murdering somebody. So if they're here to help us, I'm thankful for that.

They want to do this, they want to help us, so we won't be out there in the street, and so they won't have to put us in handcuffs.

I used to get in a lot of trouble and stuff, and I used to be into anything.

The more you can understand the beauty of nature, the more you can understand the nature of nature

That's the thing about jazz: it's free flowing, it comes from your soul.
