“These industry mutherfuckers, F.T.I., Fuck The Industry, is because of these mutherfuckers right now halting me like they’ve always done. There’s no ceilings after this album. There’s no ceilings. I’m going through all ceilings. There’s no ceilings. It goes the fuck up, Justin. Fuck these mutherfuckers, man. Watch me on the next album. I’m calling it The Storm. I’m planning the next album already and I don’t even have this one out all the way. Watch me do something with Gary Clark Jr. Watch me get a song with Lana Del Rey. Watch me and Alanis Morrissette finally do it like we’ve been talking about. Watch Jay Z come through, man! I’m not stopping! I’m not stopping! I am fucking serious, dude. I’m so serious. I love music, man. I love it so much it saved my fucking life. I be so happy out here on tour, Justin. Man, all these people smiling at me. I was fucked up! I wasn’t supposed to make nothing out of myself, the teachers told me in school. Nigga, I’m #1 independent rapper! What? You don’t think I ain’t gonna keep doing it? I ain’t complacent, nigga! I’m not complacent! This is world domination!

“This album’s gonna make a way for me to go even bigger! I tell all the people that’s with me, ‘Nigga, this is not ‘Nigga we made it!’ We got Eminem. Yes! That’s a fucking dream come true, 10 years in the making. Same thing with Corey Taylor and Slipknot. T.I., Yo Gotti, Wayne, 2 Chainz, thank you so much! Insidious and all these people. E-40, my relative, thank you! All these people came together and helped me show people that I’m the real thing. All these people doubting me like a lot of mutherfuckers on Worldstar talking shit like, ‘He’s a clown ass nigga. He corny.’ I can tell they from New York because they all use the word ‘corny.’ I’m like, ‘OK. I’m gonna get you niggas. It’s all good.’ I look at all this shit. It hurts. It’s like, ‘Damn, I don’t get how they don’t get that I’m rapping.’ Oooh, they so brutal on Worldstar. I’ma show these niggas. Watch. Everytime I go to New York, more and more black people are like, ‘What’s up Tech!’ Yep. Breakin’ Into Colored Houses [‘B.I.T.C.H.], I was not playing. I was not playing. ‘Hood Go Crazy’… watch, man. I am not playing, man. I’m not playing. It’s cool. Everybody think I’m corny, that’s funny. Nigga, I’m bustin’ on their ass. When they heard me bust acapella when Envy asked me rap on the Breakfast Club. Them niggas can’t outrap me, man. Watch. I mean this shit so much, man. I’m so happy out here doing this. My mom’s spirit is in my chest. I’m walking on sunshine and don’t it feel good. This is the King Of Darkness singing to you ‘I’m walking on sunshine’ because I write that shit. I get all that shit out, Justin. That’s my therapy. All my darkness goes into my music and the response that I get has me, The King Of Darkness walking on sunshine. What a Klusterfuck, dude. I love it.”
