You gotta get up early in the morning to mess with me. I mean, I'm a businessman first-you gotta let the business come before the music, because it's all about being a good person and your ego can't get bigger than yourself and the things you're your trying to do, especially when you're promoting an album. So I feel it's real important to be businesslike in anything I do.
