I've been Tech N9ne since '88.

My love for music is infinite.

We have darkness as human beings.

I've always been an elite artist.

I've always been like a black hippie.

Got so much to say, such little time.

We had a nine-piece choir on 'Aw Yeah.'

I wanted to be Ice Cube when I was younger.

Me and Twenty One Pilots would be wonderful.

You have to distance yourself from hate, period.

I feel fuzzy inside when I see good people make it.

I'm independent. I use my own money. For everything.

I love Lil Wayne for even having people look my way.

I always sacrifice myself for the love of all my people.

Halloween is my favorite holiday. It's like my Christmas.

I've been around since 1985. When the Jordan shoe came out.

With my face paint on, I don't look like a regular black dude.

I'm inside out. I'm transparent. I'm open for the world to see.

I feel like I'm Dracula, dude, like, um... Nosferatu, you know.

I'm the complete technique of rhyme. I don't have no boundaries.

The master race, for real, is money. Money can buy you anything.

My quest has always been to get my story to the rest o' the people.

I'm a different type of rapper. I work more than the average rapper.

I've been around so long that I've seen rappers make it and plummet.

I'm not a horrorcore rapper. I rap my life, but I love horror movies.

I would love to have Mystikal on Strange Music when he gets outta jail.

I'm from Kansas City, Missouri. No one has to give a damn about my story.

I'm only at home for, like, a month when I'm doing an album - at the most.

My biggest challenge in my career is not looking or sounding like anybody.

I will not change what I am for no amount of money or just kudos for my peers.

Busta Rhymes has been around for centuries. He's one of the original vampires.

When I first spit my first rhyme in public on my school bus, I had an audience.

I don't really put cars in my videos because I'm always flying or on a tour bus.

Taking pictures and stuff, I'm kind of like, shy, but you couldn't tell onstage.

I was not an athlete, but I was a break-dancer. I was a beatboxer, an entertainer.

I take pride in lyrics. I take pride in music and staying on beat and being on key.

I know, if I'm speaking to God in any kind of way, I keep myself from using profanity.

Some people like the dark music I do. The dark music is my life; it isn't make believe.

I write in a mathematical manner. For some of my songs, I rhyme every syllable. It's a science.

I originally got my name after a gun because the way I rap; a gangster gave me the name in 1988.

Music is music - it makes no difference what it is. I can like Slipknot and Public Enemy equally.

Snow Tha Product was dope. She wanted me on a song, so I did it for her. I ain't charge her nothing.

Every time I come out, there's more and more people paying attention, so I gotta show out every time.

Whenever you can take something positive and make something good out of it, that's what I'm all about.

OutKast. For them to come back together to rap with me and my brother Krizz Kaliko would be ginormous.

I'm a builder. I build ideas and give them to the people, and they receive them in such a wonderful way.

I've always been strange; I've always been slightly to the left, like 'weirdo' to other people, I guess.

I want everybody to know my name because I feel like I give so much of my heart and my soul in my music.

The beautiful thing about being independent and having my own label is I can say whatever the hell I want.

I know how to do music, no matter how weird I look on stage with the face paint, mask, and hospital scrubs.
