What makes 'Maybach Music V' so special was, of course, I put the album out celebrating my daughter's birthday as well, and DeJ Loaf is her favorite artist. So 'Maybach Music V,' I wanted a real airy type of feel. Just a real slow vibe to it that's also going to surprise my daughter. So that's real special.Collection: Birthday
I realized that my success comes from doing the things I love most.Collection: Success
Really, every day is the perfect day to boss up. Every day that you wake up is a perfect day to boss up. It's all about continuing to put one foot in front of the next. That's what it's about. Whatever you think you're going through, just put one foot in front of the next.
At the end of the day, I'm the biggest boss. I'm self-made.
I ain't gonna lie: I love that cheese.
When you walk in a room, the room should feel that this guy's different. What does he do? Who is he? And that's confidence, not cockiness.
Some of my best friends are white.
Being your best can only enhance your personal performance.
I'm extremely happy with 'Maybach Music V.'
MMG for life.
I was a real avid 'Fresh Prince of Bel-Air' fan. I think I may know every episode.
I nickname my cars. Most of the time, it doesn't make any sense. One of my Benzes I call Justin Bieber. My Maybach is Oprah.
I'm making my money make money.
Miami is a party city, a go-fast city.
I believe in building your foundation - if your foundation is not rich, then you are far from rich.
I think we all have a right to bear arms, whichever amendment that is.
I'm a big chicken guy, and Wingstop chicken wings are my number one go-to, so I just got involved with the company. I purchased a few franchises myself. I like to consider myself a global brand ambassador.
I remember the first time eating my chef's Caesar salad. It was just like one of those moments in the movie theater when everything gets quiet.
I eat the way I want to eat.
I embraced EDM from the beginning.
Are you the person who just wakes up, puts your T-shirt on and runs out of the house? Or do you wake up an hour early - get your mental notes together, fix you a little coffee... prepare yourself for the day and try to do something really great? It begins with you.
When you face obstacles or go through different phases, I always relied on my music. I depend on my music, my teammates. So at the end of the day, having incredible music, for me, would keep me in the space I want to be as an artist.
There's always money to get.
I keep my family involved in all business.
When I was sitting at home watching 'Yo! MTV Raps' as a kid, seeing the bright jackets excited me.
I love pears. Most definitely - it's a fact.
I really savor the times of me and all my best friends and family members getting together.
When I first came to Def Jam, in '06, all we ever did was win, put up big numbers.
My mom's a hustler. She a grinder.
If I quit all the things I loved cold turkey, I knew it would only be so long before I went back to my old ways.
Def Jam is an iconic label.
Puff Daddy is a great party thrower. He goes down in the history books.
I love Adele. When I see her, I may kiss Adele.
I believe everybody got the right to live their own life the way they want to.
I ain't gon' lie. I got love for Solange. She look sexy to me.
I used to eat big meals at 2 A.M. and base it on my schedule. But I don't do that no more.
I love the story of 'Lamborghini Doors,' a record with Meek Mill and myself - it came together when I went to visit him during his incarceration.
Watching dudes come up is one of my biggest joys.
I love my beard.
In high school, I played football and became an all-American offensive lineman, but my father hadn't been to any of my games. In those instances, you still hold your head up high. But, when you look up into the stands and you see everyone else's parents cheering and supporting, you have to just stay focused and push through.
I've got a record titled 'Idols Become Rivals,' and it's basically me writing a letter to someone in the game that I looked up to damn near the most, and I hate what things have come to.
When I make music and I'm talking on records, it's like I'm painting a picture. In my mind, I'm seeing a film.
I come from Carol City. The city renamed it Miami Gardens.
It's pretty much a given known fact in the industry that before I was successful, I wrote for other artists.
When someone mentions my name because they're attacking someone that I'm close with, it's my problem now.
If you set a regimen up, you can lose weight. I grinded my weight off.
