Is there potential for a hip-hop Rolling Stones, still rocking the mic at 70?
I think so. I don t I want to necessarily see a 50-year old rapper, but being behind the scenes, making tracks, and producing, there s no age limit on that. It s all about who s keeping it hot. You could make a hot hip-hop record if you re 70, you just gotta know what s going on in here, and know what the people want. If people are talking about somebody being too old, that means that sound is getting too old. It s time to start your game over, reinvent yourself or something. Is that what you do? That s exactly what I do; I try to reinvent myself. If you keep doing the same thing, people are going to get tired of it, that s when it becomes old. So, I gotta keep reinventing myself. Plus, when I put a record out, I think a lot of people are influenced by my music, and I think there s a lot of shit that comes out that sounds similar to mine. That makes the sound become old a little bit faster, so I definitely have to keep reinventing myself and trying new things. Have you ever considered
