   Worldwide Underground (2003)


“If I would have done “Danger” with that headwrap on some of the fans would have gotten it. It took them longer to get it because they weren’t looking for a savior…they were looking for someone who looked like one. Once you take that headwrap off you confuse some people. But the same message was there. It wasn’t a [gangster record] like some people were making it out to be. Just listen to lyrics…’Aint no mistaking, the money you making leaves you nervous and shaking/Cause at night you’re awake and thinkin’ about lives that you’ve taken/All the love you’ve forsaken in yo zone, niggaz goin’ get they fucking head blown…Danger…’ It was talking about the dangers of that [drug] life. “Other Side Of The Game” talked about the same thing. Now I will say that “Danger” did not sound like my past records. It sounded like Dallas, which is where I’m from. And I have news…there’s not going to be one song that sounds the same. That’s not going to happen. That’s what creating music is all about to me.”
