I see so many different types of people getting together. I ain’t going to say — I ain’t going too much of a speech. I ain’t going take too long, but I would like to dedicate this show tonight to anybody that was affected in those fires. To anybody that was affected by these new laws, these immigration laws, everybody. My heart goes out to you because we all one people, you know what I’m saying? We all one people this shit got me feeling fucked up, but I’m happy to be here nonetheless. Thank you to everybody who prayed for me and all that. Me and my family, I appreciate y’all, man. So much love.”

And when you are new into the industry, you have to market yourself and you have to make connections. And some people be shy and afraid, but don’t be too afraid to showcase your talent because, at the end of the day, that’s what we’re here for. It’s your fault if no one knows you, remember that.”
