I must say, I've been in the studio with Jay Z, dog... I thought the freestyle thing was a myth. But, bro!
I have this old Polo jacket. I've got to bring it wherever I go. And I have this one cape that somebody gave to me. It's this jumpsuit with this cape on the back that this one person gave to me. It's clutch.

My grandad, he has his doctorate in psychology.
When I was three years old, my dad bought me my first drum set.
Kanye is the leading eagle: he's like the president who stands up for kids like us who have ideas.
