I just don't want to be rapping forever. I love it, but sometimes you got goals for yourself.

I was about 11 when my mother brought me this karaoke machine and I was really into it back then, but about 4 or 5 years ago is when I started printing up my own music, going to the studio and doing my own thing.

I just don't want to be rapping forever. I love it, but sometimes you got goals for yourself.

Working with 50 Cent was great, you know what Im saying? It was just great to work with 50 Cent.

I just do what I'm here for and that's to make that music.

I'm the 1st black platinum artist in Detroit, solo artist in Detroit.

The Anger Management Tour was another beautiful thing. I loved that tour.

I don't want to be an actor or nothing but if I have to, I'll act if it's the right thing.

Well, Eminem, you know, I know him longer. Ive been signed to his label since 2001 and he's a good friend.

Yeah I grew up on the Westside of Detroit.

I get the music, I get the beats. And I go to the studios and write the lyrics.

Beef is beef, you know. Beef comes, so Beef is real.

Where's Eminem, when is Em coming out, Em this, Em that, 50 this, 50 that... What about Obie?

I'm working on my new album right now. Hopefully to get that out at the top of 2005, January 2005.

You know, I'm the 1st black solo MC from Detroit. I didn't do the 50 Cent sales but hey... I got a long career, I'm still young and I'm trying to bring really good music.

Let's say I was a plumber, or I worked at a factory, I would download music, you feel what I'm saying?

But working with Dre, I grew up with his music, so I'm still like more a fan.

I want to get off with the screenwriting.

I would say old school cats like Redman and Wu-tang. My style is my style, those are just cats that I liked.

7 Mile is like an Ave. Back in the days it was poppin' in the summer time.

I don't actually sit down and write, but I just have a lot of different ideas about films and making movies.

Downloading songs is not good.

I think it need realness, you should speak on thing that you know about, that you being from, that you experienced or that you been around, you know. I think you need a good hook, good beats and good lyrics.

I'm just going to do me; I'm not trying to do the Eminem thing, the D12 thing or the 50 thing.

Detroit is right now a new Mecca for Hip Hop.

Eminem is more like a friend. And I'm also a fan on Eminem.

But since I am in the music industry, I don't want anyone to download music, not on September 9th.

Given six months to live and being the fighter that I am, I set high goals for myself.

My back to the goal, physically fighting off defenders, trying to bang my goals in, every week I have to do the business for this club. That's the life of a striker.

At the bottom, the elimination of spyware and the preservation of privacy for the consumer are critical goals if the Internet is to remain safe and reliable and credible.

A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

My goals are to hit .300, score 100 runs, and stay injury-prone.

Lives have been altered in fundamental ways, and later, after they acquire a more complete understanding of what goals are actually attainable, many are left facing a lot of pain and frustration. And yet, there's no culture of complaint.

A politician's goal is always to manipulate public debate. I think there are some politicians with higher goals. But all of them get corrupted by power.

You must accept that you might fail; then, if you do your best and still don't win, at least you can be satisfied that you've tried. If you don't accept failure as a possibility, you don't set high goals, you don't branch out, you don't try - you don't take the risk.

Greatness is not measured by what a man or woman accomplishes, but by the opposition he or she has overcome to reach his goals.

I knew all these people had the same goals I did, but the one that worked the hardest would come out on top. That's what drove me all the time. But I had fun. I did better every day, and that's what made it fun.

My job is to score goals.

If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is simply because your goals are not clearly defined.

I learned that people everywhere are basically the same and have similar goals that we do. They want health and happiness and the opportunity to provide for their families.

Your goals, minus your doubts, equal your reality.

I just don't want to be rapping forever. I love it, but sometimes you got goals for yourself.

I don't think I ever set my goals that high. As a kid growing up I just wanted an opportunity to race and to be able to make a living doing it. It just came together.

Indeed - judicious, consistent parenting is a dream of mine. No judgements, learning space and listening carefully are my goals.

Make your goals big and broad enough so that they never become answered prayers and boomerang to curse you.

To meet my goals, I couldn't let up when I was playing tennis.

Chicago is one city. We shall work as one people for our common good and our common goals.

People are not lazy. They simply have impotent goals - that is, goals that do not inspire them.

It is a rare piece of legislation indeed where there is so much agreement about the goals.
