Stadium Arcadium

That had 'Dani California' on it. I liked it because it was rock and it was something different for me.

Robbers & Cowards

I like 'Hospital Beds' and 'Hang Me Up To Dry.' It was so different, the beats and the symphonies and harmonies that they chose. I'm a guy who's pretty big on that, so hearing that was pretty awesome.

Late Registration

When College Dropout dropped, I was fucking with 'Ye, but I wasn't one of those big-ass Kanye fans. By the time Late Registration came out, I was a big-ass Kanye fan. I was a fucking Kanye fanatic. After that, everybody started riding the bandwagon. I'm one of those complicated OCD motherfuckers, where I can't be doing everything that everyone else is doing. I didn't want no parts of it.

Cam'Ron Presents The Diplomats - Diplomatic Immunity

Diplomatic Immunity taught me how to let my nuts hang and fuck bitches. You couldn't tell me I wasn't the shit, because I was from Harlem. They made Harlem look good, like I'm doing for Harlem right now. That's all that was.

Get Rich Or Die Tryin

His shit influenced everybody, because he came out and he was proclaimed the greatest rapper at the time. Everybody was 50 Cent happy and shit, and I think he did a lot. He lived up to his name at that time. He was putting out endless classic shit. Shout out to Fif. That album was the soundtrack to the hood at that time.

A Rush of Blood to the Head

'The Scientist' was the shit, man. 'Nobody said it was easy,' that shit was too trill. Personally, sometimes you want some different shit, and that's what appealed to me. I can't describe it or explain it. That shit just really appealed to a nigga.

When The Smoke Clears

Sippin' On Some Syrup' was on that. I was fucking with that when I was about 11. I was getting into that on the regular. I was fucking with “Two Way Freak” around that time, too.

Stankonia

Outkast is a fucking major influence on me. That had 'So Fresh, So Clean,' 'B.O.B.,' 'Mrs. Jackson,' all that shit on it. Those were all hits. They all influenced hip-hop in a major way. Andre was fucking swagging out. He showed the world that it was cool to be different, and you can be like, “Fuck what the world thinks.” Nobody ever got at him for that and they never will. He's the fucking man, that's why.

Volume. 3... Life and Times of S. Carter

Jay-Z is one of those cats where a lot of his shit is timeless. I remember when 'Big Pimpin'' was out. That's when I was a Pimp C lover, no homo. That's when Roc-A-Fella had it. That's when shit was live.

Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood

It's Dark And Hell Is Hot

I was just moving to Pennsylvania and leaving Harlem at that time, so I was pretty homesick. DMX kept that New York feeling for me. I could vibe out to that and relate to that.

Ridin' Dirty

Most of their beginning shit is what I fuck with. I like that real underground early shit. They were keeping it trill around that time. That's like me putting out a second album. Motherfuckers were just keeping it true to themselves and shit. Pimp C, Bun B. They're the reason we're on that trill shit.

E. 1999 Eternal

That shit got me through my childhood. [When people compare me to Bone Thugs], it's a good comparison, because I was very influenced by them. Those guys are legends in my eyes. I think those are the only guys I might meet and cry.

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Listening to all that shit makes you just want to say, 'Fuck being glamorous. If these bitches don't want to fuck, fuck them. They can suck my dick.' That's that shit that makes you say, 'I'm about to sip a 40, get a blunt, and call it a night. Hang out with my niggas.' That's what that's about.
