Mustard

Apart from working on music, I'd rather play big festivals than almost anything else.

Everybody likes good music, so when you're just playing good music and encouraging everybody to have fun, they'll have fun.

You never know with me. I change my mind like I change my job. And I do that very often.

I've been working hard to lose weight and become healthier overall. I even started putting the workouts on my Snapchat so my fans can see how dedicated I am to being better.

I want my hands in all the pots and not just one. I want to make the right moves that'll put me in the right place.

I feel like me and YG are the closest to Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg that people are gonna get.

I just want people to hear my music and feel good, go to the club, dance, have fun, and get home safe... none of that gang-banging stuff.

Sam Smith is amazing.

TeeFlii brought an edge to our camp. He's definitely going to be one of the greats.

Anytime anyone of my friends in my camp, if we argue, we gonna fight for real.

My goal is to be the Jay Z of DJing.

You see so many musicians come and go. For me, it's really about the longevity in the music industry. It's not all about having a lot of hit records at one time.

Dark music always works in a club.

When I got my first check from 'Rack City,' I was like, 'Damn, I can make this much money making beats?'

I'm big on simplicity. I'm not too much on all the extra instruments.

You can't complain about everybody that steals your sound. You'll be fighting for years trying to figure out how to make people not steal it.

I don't want to be known for only making ratchet music.

I create my music so you can go to the club and have fun.

'Ratchet' has a lot of meanings. You can be a bad ratchet or a good ratchet. You can have fun, be ghetto, and get ratchet.

I can do every type of music, but hip-hop was my way into the game.

The past is always recycled. I'm just taking what the people I looked up to did and translating it for my generation.

I wanna be involved in everything, not just one thing.

My uncle is just, like, always pushing me to be better, be a man, and showing me the ropes of the game.

Any man can take a sucker punch, but if you get slapped, it's other repercussions to that.

I'm getting too much money to be fighting people.

I don't know why people be in the club trying to be so cool. Standing around, trying to be cool. I don't get that. I just think everybody wanna be a star. That's why people don't dance.

When you come in the club, people are trying to get your attention, so they pull your hand. It's like, why are you pulling on me?

There's male groupies - guys that wanna stand next to you to get to the girls. A male groupie is the worst.

If I'm DJing, and you stop me and take a picture? That's annoying.

Whatever energy you put out is what you're gonna get.

When you're in this music thing, and you got friends involved in this, of course ya'll gonna have disagreements, and that's gon' be the outcome: we gon' fight each other.

I like everything to happen organically.

If I ever do meet John Mayer and we end up in the studio, hopefully he'll bring the guitar, and I'll make a beat to it or something.

I wanna compete; I wanna be the best at whatever I do.

I was taught to work for what I wanted to achieve in life.

You've got to change with time.

I think that you're only going to get better if you take time to better yourself, not because someone says you should get better.

Sometimes you can do a million songs, and if they're not good, you're just wasting your time.

Now I have a business, artists to take care of. I want to make sure everything's going right, because at the end of the day, it's my name.

I like dressing in designer clothes, and it's hard to buy them if you are overweight. And I got tired of, like, going in the stores, and then it was like I couldn't fit in anything. And overall, I wanted to be healthy.

Anytime you throw claps back to back on a song, it makes everybody want to get up and have fun. It's a fun sound.

I don't really like listening to so much rap because I like to have my mind focused on what I'm doing instead of worrying about what everybody else is doing.

My uncle, he's a big DJ out here in L.A. His name is DJ Tee; he's got a bar in Westchester.

I could do beats with a million sounds, and I could do beats with two sounds. Which one is going to make the most sense, and which one is going to sell the most records? Most of the time, it's the simplicity.

I actually care about my shows.

Being the new guy, you're gonna dress your best every day. When you're the cool guy, you gonna be like, 'Ah, I'm the cool guy anyway. I don't need to dress like that.'

I'm just doing all type of music that I like. I'm not so worried about the money like I used to be. I got money now. I don't have to worry about that.

I think my set is more so mixed in everything. It's not just EDM.

I started DJing when I was, like, 11.

Me and my little cousin DJ John John, we used to always be DJing in the house. We never took it seriously.
