Zitat des Tages von DMX:
I'm a blessing to whoever gets to really know me.
My fans need me. I need me.
I feel like Sony appreciates good music from a talented artist.
When I'm at home, I don't discuss business. I don't talk business. I don't answer the phone. It's just me, my wife, my children, my dogs. That's my world.
Somebody's upset with every movie.
I don't recall being excited about a new rapper, ever.
I'm not the mixtape guy who's gonna put out a new one every month. I'm gonna allow my albums to marinate and resonate and whatever type of 'ates' they can do. I'm gonna let my music grow on them.
I'm still the same. That's why the fans love me. Because they need stability in the industry.
My relationship with God has gotten so much stronger. He's always had his hand on me. He always guided me. I didn't always go where he wanted me to go. But He always had me. Now that I'm actually listening and being obedient, life is so much better.
When I was a kid, nobody in my family had a car. And I didn't have many toys. The only toys I had were the ones I would steal.
I want 'Flesh Of My Flesh' to be like my connection to the community, I want to say what's on my peoples' minds, soak up all their pain. I've learned that when I take it all in, I can make one brotha's pain be understood by the world.
To me, it isn't tight sweaters. That's not what rap is. That's not hip-hop at all. Every phase went through changing up their dress styles and all that, but since Run DMC came out, it's been baggy jeans.
I'm used to driving fast; I'm a New Yorker.
An important and fundamental premise of the American judicial system is the presumption of innocence, that is until proven guilty.
Some people buy records just to dance to 'em. Some people buy records to listen to the radio. And there's people that buy records 'cause they listen to every song.
I know I may have done some bad things, but I'm not a bad person.
I'm a King. Regardless of what I've been through and what I've done, I present myself as a King. And I get that respect from people, from everybody I deal with. I worked my whole life to establish that respect and make sure I get that respect.
When you happy, you get locked in sleep. You get sleepy happy. I always wanna be on point. I always wanna be aware.
Men, we don't get much, as far as holidays go - Father's Day.
I'm not the average artist.
The truth doesn't change. It was the same when Moses got the Ten Commandments as it is today. That's the thing about the truth. That's the thing about real. It doesn't change and it doesn't have to change. Now you can put it in a different book, but it's still real. It's still the truth.
Every day, I get closer to God. Every day, my will to do the right thing gets stronger.
You can't speak for the people unless you're able to walk amongst the people. And how many of these rappers out here actually hang out with regular people?
One thing that people don't really understand is that as celebrity you rarely get fair treatment. You either get love or hate. It's never really fair.
There shouldn't be any violence in hip-hop. You're getting free clothes. Basically, it's free money.
