"You know, I deal with consciousness, I deal with responsibility, but I consider myself an emcee. I didn't get into this thinking "ooh, I'm gonna be a conscious rapper."

But still people harp on the consciousness thing ? but it's all good. It's great, it's positive, but it's not all of what I am."
