What this beautiful angel did and say, 'Oh OK, I'm gonna take it for myself because I'm hot right now and I'm feelin' myself. How do you just go there with it? Your balls ain't that big, son."</blockquote>

Mike Tyson Opens Up On Chad Johnson Head-butting Evelyn Lozada

So everybody knew what they were getting into when they got into it. This all comes down to really believing who you are more than what you are...I've been that guy, so I'm not saying he's a bad guy, but anybody could put that camera on you and start selling your dreams and you will really believe these dreams that you're somebody that you're actually not...He's everything that he never wanted to be in front of everybody, without him even giving his opinion or explaining why this happened, because you can't explain it. In this day and time, head-butting a woman, even if she struck you, you can't explain that...that doesn't mean that they still don't love each other. But at that moment in time, if you're not conscious and strategize your actions, your emotions can take you places that you never believed you were ever conceived in going."</blockquote>

But they have turned their back on social responsibility. That goes for Jay-Z and Beyoncé, for example. Give me Bruce Springsteen, and now you're talking. I really think he is black." </blockquote>

If you lived up under the microscope as this family does, everybody has dysfunctionality in their families, either one way or the other. See, I'm from the south and [we] was raised in that southern way. You have to understand Paris is what, 14? How old is Janet? Who's the one who tries to direct the other one here? And I would think that it's a good thing she let's Paris know who she is. She is a Jackson, she shouldn't be putting the business out there like that. Cause people read into whatever they want to read into, that's how they get the drama. So, she's just trying to protect her, in a way. But if she [Paris] called me that, she wouldn't have any teeth...You respect your elders."</blockquote>

I've been to California from Detroit four times this year and Florida. I go wherever I choose to go comfortably on my custom bus. Further, my audience and fans span the age of 8 to 90! And are multi-ethnic, and I am very well known to young adults, tweens and teens. Their parents play my music and I take care of my business whenever I sign on the dotted line! I'm surprised Kathie Lee did not research my worldwide celebrity audience... She should research me before she speaks about me." </blockquote>

For me, I feel like, especially for someone in Hip Hop, to really kind of be genuine and honest - whatever the honesty is about - I think it's awesome. So my feelings about it aren't necessarily valid, it's just the fact that, as an artist, I can respect that he wears his feelings on his sleeve. I like that."</blockquote>

When women are getting dressed, if she says, "hey bitch hurry up, we're going to the mall, you're holding us up." You don't feel like when a man is saying that word to you. It's degrading and it actually hurts just a little bit more. And the same [goes] with the word, n***a. At that point where it's being used by someone that you know isn't using it in the racial term, it doesn't impact the same to the person that's hearing it. They think it's just a part of the way that they talk."

But my all-around perspective, I wasn't there. I don't know what happened. Even though this is the best country in the world, certain laws in this country are a disgrace to a nation of savages. It's a majority versus a minority. That's the way God planned it. He didn't want to do something about it, He wanted us to do something about it. We have to continue tweeting, we have to continue marching, we have to continue fighting for Trayvon Martin. If that's not the case, he was killed in vain, and we're just waiting for it to happen to our children. It's a disgrace that man hasn't been dragged out of his house and tied to a car and taken away. Forget about him being arrested--the fact that he hasn't been shot yet is a disgrace. That's how I feel personally about it."</blockquote>

Nas Opens Up On Trayvon Martin's Legacy
<a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/29/trayvon-martin-case-nas_n_1388381.html" target="_hplink">03/29/12</a>:<blockquote> "I have a son now, he'll be three. And I'm thinking about him. He has to grow up in this society where people in high places [in the court] don't see it important that somebody should be prosecuted for murder, just because the victim is black. And it's a rage that goes through you that makes you want to react in all kinds of ways. I'm tired of marches, I'm tired of talking. And that's the feeling that would come over me. But violence is not always the answer, but what do people do when there's no justice? And someone like Trayvon, a 17-year-old, innocent smart kid killed by a coward, can now have a legacy that he would've never dreamed he had. Maybe he thought in football that he would have a legacy, but now his legacy can be something that can help change things, hopefully." </blockquote>

Where I was in that sort of 'I'm young, I'm going to disconnect from my emotions and just do what everyone else tells me I should do and just be a rapper and have my fun.' And for me as a person, it just doesn't work. I just need something else. The seconds after a man reaches climax, that's like the realest moment of your life. If I don't want you next to me in that fifteen, twenty seconds, then there's something wrong." </blockquote>

There's a lot of music on the horizon. I've been living off the excitement of new artists. I've been privileged to have these new artists kind of reach out and grab back and say, "Hey, Andre, we want you on this song." So I've been taking those calls and for the last two years, I've been doing collaborations. So these new artists have kind of been keeping me alive. I've just really been feeding off of that and this year I think I'm planning to do a solo project. I don't know when it will come out, but hopefully it'll come out this year. As far as OutKast, I really don't know if or when that will happen."</blockquote>

And I don't think there's anything the matter with singing, but I just feel like I wanted to stand up for hip hop to a certain extent and hear cats rhyming and hear some hip hop elements. So what I really was addressing was all those cats that are out there singing and if certain people feel offended by it then they fit in that category. But I always want them to know that it's just hip hop. And in hip hop you challenge people. What I said in Sweet, [Drake] must have felt like he was one of the people being addressed. So he decided to say what he had to say. I say we can keep it on a hip hop level. I think he's a talented artist. But I'm saying if you wanna get in the ring, we just gotta get in the ring.

I don't think that ever got as much credit that he's deserved. The world was in fear and he did a lot to close that gap. I think that he should speak about what he inherited, he inherited a financial mess. And I know that everybody's expectations were that his hope and his promise would resolve it much quicker than it is. Things were so bad people wanted instant gratification. But it took eight years, minimum, to cause that mess and they wanted him to solve it in two and a half, and it's tough. And I feel for the fact that he has these head winds in front of him. The Republicans is doing a very good job of painting that picture like, 'what did he do?'" </blockquote>

He's right up there with the greats, and people may not recognize it today. But I promise you a few years from today we're going to look back and say, 'Oh my god, what an amazing, amazing talent.' People love Kanye for sure, but he's great, great. I mean on the level of Prince. But modern day, he's hip-hop. He's not the same thing. He doesn't play guitar, he doesn't play piano. He's not that kind of performer, but for hip-hop he is a king."</blockquote>
