Quotes:
Somtimes I regret it, because people take it the wrong way. Everybody got a bad ways, and I'm a "Bad Ass'" whenever I'm not good, so that's what I'm talkin' about.
I think that's because a lot of people are burning' C.D.'s. There are a lot of people burnin' peoples stuff, and that hurts a lot of rappers. They not workin' more, [or] as hard than the first time. People expect more and more every time. They gotta look at that too. I think there are different reasons.
I wanna do actin'. You know what I'm sayin? I want to be a manager for new artists, get real estate"
"I got tired of just people, grown men, like "What up Lil Boosie?" No, I'm grown. It should be Mr.! You know, I'm Boosie Badazz. I'm a dad, man. Just take the shit off! That's how I was feeling ... Boosie Badazz is just like, more people say Badazz when they see me than Boosie, so I just stuck with the Boosie Badazz."
"I have about 500 songs at the moment. I feel that I'm making the best music I've ever made. The more I go through in life the better my music gets and it's been crazy the last three years. I keep my music heartfelt and stick to making real music. I wouldn't even say it's Hip Hop music. My music is 'reality rap.' Hip Hop music can make you dance and bob your head, but it can't make you cry or touch your heart like reality rap"
