A Quote by Chamillionaire
The visual is everywhere in the streets, but in the industry, it's like you have to show up at this party and you can't take on the world in one day. It's a gradual process, but you can't let it frustrate you; you just have to keep grinding.

I don't even think of myself as a quote, unquote star - that's really douchey. I think of myself as just like . . . a dance commander.

And if he doesn't, then you walk.
The most important thing about art is to work. Nothing else matters except sitting
down every day and trying. Why is this important? Because when we sit down day after
day and keep grinding, something mysterious starts to happen. A process is set in

in our cause; serendipity reinforces our purpose.
