"Hell yeah I'm a threat to the government. I'm a 22, young black male who's very aware and enlightened of what's going on in this country. Not only am I aware, but I'm sharing it with my fans. I'm a big threat, I'm not scared, this is what I was put on Earth for."

"4:44 sounds just like the neighbourhood (Bed-Stuy), I didn't feel that way about Magna Carta. Honestly I feel like I was an inspiration to 4:44, I put certain pressure on these OGs in the rap game, they know what they gotta talk about now. Cause they got this young n**** Joey Badass talking about this sh*t before they got the chance to talk about it. I'm glad I could be an inspiration."

"Me and Kendrick we don't talk too much, we never got the chance to really build, but I already know we right here with it. Timing is everything with me, I just let the Universe take its course, when that's supposed to happen, it's gonna happen."

"There's trap artists who's music to me really is game changing. F*** you if you don't f*** with me for saying this, but Young Thug, Lil Uzi, they've introduced a whole different style to this vast genre of music. They should receive their credit and their shine for that, but at the same time you got artists like Kendrick Lamar, and J. Cole (..)"
