If I focus on being an activist and my job is to be a rapper, I'm not going to be as good of a rapper.

Not because I'm conscious, but because I'm dope.

Charles Handy

We stipulate about where we need to be in life: By this age you should be married, by this age you should have kids. But it's not that you can only do this or only do that.
