Quote #1
"It takes me a long time to write, and I trust myself, so I write very sparsely, so when I do, I know it's good, you know what I mean? Rather than writing a whole bunch and having to sort out what's good and what's not" {(http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/e/earlsweats612549.html#0wYSgWo8ei9Uwv3C.99) link to quote}

Quote #2
"At first, I was just trying to sound like DOOM and Eminem, and then I dug out my own voice, I guess." In the rap world if you are known for imitating another artist you're immediatly discounted as a clone of said artist and people wont expect anything new from you.
