“I wanted to do that record because we had got so much love from the East Coast and the West Coast. I just wanted to make a record to let everybody know… pretty much, when you travel different places, it’s the same stuff going on. It’s just the atmosphere and environment is different. The way we talk, the slang is different. The dress code might be different—”
“They haven’t left me since 1992 so I can always depend on them, we’re like family. I always tell them they are the reason I was able to put my children through school. But I’m very grateful and appreciative of the younger generation for getting on to my music and learning about me. They’re showing me love and not treating me like a middle-aged lady.”
“I’m learning, and I depend on the younger supporters to teach me. I also taught hip-hop at Loyola University [New Orleans], and most of my students helped me navigate. I’m from the beeper and pay phone era, and I’m still comfortable in the beeper and pay phone era. So they showed me different ways to get out there and connect with people. But for the most part, I’m like just write me a letter baby, put it in the mail.”
“But, at home, I like to cook and grow things. I like to be with my grandbaby and talk to my children, family and friends. They have called me Mama Mia since I was in the 8th grade. I just remind you of your aunt or grandma. On stage, I say what I think a lot of women are feeling and what I am feeling. So, pretty much it’s the same person, one is just a little more hype because of the music and the other is more chill.”
“My first record is 34 years old and my first No Limit album is 30. So just seeing what will be in 30 years with the younger generation. I would like to see what time does for them.”
“People are asking me to pick the mic up again. I think I’m going to surprise my day ones and the new people that support me with an EP and a cooking vlog so they can cook with me. We’re just going to vibe out with some beats and eats!”

“Women are everything, we gangstas. Usually, you learn how to defend yourself and be strong because nine times out of ten, it’s your mama telling you that you gotta go outside and hit them back. Don’t take no mess from nobody. You learn how to put your sentences together from your mama. And when it gets real, when a lot of dudes get locked up, the only one they have is their mama, and their mama does every one of them years with them. No matter how many times he embarrasses her, she’ll be there like a soldier. So how can a dude figure that a broad ain’t a gangsta emcee when we the first gangstas y’all know?”
“I just let KLC and them run the beat and I sat on the floor, went over and over it until I got what I wanted to say to her. Jil was my best friend and had just got murdered right before I dropped Good Girl Gone Bad, so I just kinda wanted that record to be a conversation, just catching her up on what had happened since she was killed. And man, you know, ‘til this day, Jil is my best friend. I’ve had a lot of beautiful women in my life that have been nothing but 100 to me, but she absolutely was, I think, the best friend I’ve ever had. That record was a heavy record. After I got the girls in and told them to do the fallen angels part, it was just [everybody] kinda sitting there [in the studio] and looking [around] ‘cause everybody had been through something. There was a lot of girls getting killed [in New Orleans] in the ’90s”
