To me, rappers are liars until I see that their actions coincide with what they said through the music. Me, I put my situations down and I make fun of them.

Eminem is the rapper's rapper. He listens to everything. Every word, every slang, if you change something he's going to hear it all.

Eminem is so talented it becomes annoying. Every time we go to the studio, he's got something new to play and it's like "Oh man, I gotta have something new to play, too."

Right now we're just all really focused on making Hannah Montana the show as good as it can be, but hopefully in the future there may be a Hannah Montana soundtrack. Or a Miley Cyrus album.

All the songs that are in the show, even the theme song, will all be me singing. I recorded eight or nine songs already. Nine episodes, nine songs.

I'm just doing what I do best and that's what makes good music, and that's how you can relate to people.

There was always an impulse to perform in one way or another. Most of my experiences performing growing up were doing musicals, singing, being in choirs.. I sang in choirs when I was in college as well. I was a choir geek the first couple of years. Then I became a theater geek. I took an acting class my sophomore year and realized that in terms of my enthusiasm and aptitude, it was definitely the thing.

The whole point of being in this business and being blessed and being successful is that you're able to do things for your friends or your family, which means that they can have something special in their lives, too.

Record companies, believe me, no matter what record company you're with, they're going to try to hype you, because, really, all record companies are interested in is making money.

When I hear a great new record, especially when it's by someone that I respect and admire, then a part of me is like, "Why didn't I think of that? Why didn't I write that record?" It makes you sick, but in a way it can be a great thing. It makes you want to go back to the lab and start writing again. Maybe it will inspire you to try a little harder.

I'm not interested in the moment. I'm interested in how this is going to sound in 30 years time.

People like to label you. I've never like being labelled. I can't take it because I'm never going to do the same thing over and over and over. I hate being limited. I hate being put in a box. The music that I've made, the way that I've carried myself, I've always had this weird broad audience.

One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.

I am aware that most people only see me as Shaq.. the guy on the court. But there is another side to who I am, Shaquille O'Neal. And Shaquille O'Neal wants to explore every part of life. He wants the opportunity to pursue all of his desires.. that includes being a part of the music industry as an MC. Music is and will always be a part of who I am.

I still have a lot to learn - about the business, about music, and about myself. Its exciting.

There are a lot of misquotes in music journalism, more so than even in the American news media, which is hard to imagine.

There's a great distinction between actors and musicians, in that musicians for the most part have pride of ownership. We're not handed someone else's work to interpret; we're interpreting our own work.

The degree to which I apply myself as an artist, as a song writer, is at the very least absolutely sincere and giving everything that I can. And that counts for something.

With every album, I try to better myself. I'm a perfectionist.

I was expressing what I was going through. All the better artists.. I don't want to use the word 'great' because it'll come off as arrogant or whatever.. all the better artists in history have expressed what they were going through.

I'm a musician. I'm not someone who's trying to be diplomatic, you know, trying to get my 15 minutes. I'm just a musician who is honest.

I don't ever want to do anything mediocre. I hear the music in the charts and I don't mean to be rude, but those people have no soul. Learning from music is like eating a meal.. you have to pace yourself. You can't take everything from it all at once. I want to be different, definitely. I'm not a one trick pony. I'm at least a five-trick pony.

I know I'm talented, but I wasn't put here to sing. I was put here to be a wife and a mum and look after my family. I love what I do, but it's not where it begins and ends.

As an artist the key things you have to do is prove yourself in a live scene, prove yourself in a writing scene, and prove yourself doing covers. They're as important as each other.

I don't suffer fools gladly. I'm not here to make friends. I've learnt that the hard way - I used to not say things like "I really want to hold a guitar in my video", because I was trying to make everyone like me. But I don't give a shit now. At the end of the day I'm there to do my job, I'm not there to have picnics.
