Actually just recently I came up with that idea watching the movie 'Legally Blonde' and I was like 'Cool that's something I want to do.'
Some of the hip-hop stuff people get into is exciting because there's a passion and there's something to explain to a more mainstream audience so you get these passionate writers who want to express their love for rap and hip-hop which is cool.
Doing something that warrants the attention of the President of the United States is super cool.
We had a huge audience we sold truckloads of albums. If we do something that's cool people will listen to it. If we don't we would be selling people short.
I want kids of this generation to see that everything is cool that there's some kind of unity in hip-hop. We all found something that's really important to us and music is all we've really got.
You get to bring your own sound system when you play an arena all the lights and visual stuff which I think is really cool. There's something about those old arenas where it feels larger than life.
I'm pretty content with what I have but the one thing that I don't have is something like the iPod - but PC-based. I think that would be cool.
I'm a guy who likes to watch something cool creepy and suspenseful and there is no show to watch as an adult that would scare me at for even four seconds.
Now there is so much expertise and brainpower it's hard to be at the cutting edge of what's cool and not do something that's totally geeky.
Now guitar was pretty cool. Everybody knew something on the guitar. So I wanted to play guitar but I told my dad if he wanted me to keep studying something I'd like to study piano.
It's pretty cool that people will pay for something even though they don't have to. It's totally different now to back in the day. Now you're paying for a record because you believe in the band. In the future that will be the only time people will pay for albums because there's some kind of connection.
I would never do a commercial for something that is embarrassing and I think that people maybe have a different perspective on what is embarrassing or not. Some people think doing a Revlon hair commercial is really cool. To me that's embarrassing but World of Warcraft - not embarrassing very cool.
If the choice is between doing something supercool and having no one hear it and doing something equally cool and tricking people into putting it on the radio I don't think the second option is some big sellout.
'Ludacris' is something that I made up. It just kind of describes me. Sometimes I have like a split personality. Sometimes I'm cool calm and collected and other times I'm beyond crazy.
But this is Miami you can't come to Miami and not show any skin. You gotta show something. If you're all covered up in this heat you're gonna make me pass out out just to look at you. It's sweaty in Miami-but the diamonds will keep me cool.
I think the great sketch shows like 'Python' and 'Mr. Show ' they didn't stick around for very long. There's something kind of cool about that.
You show up in Paris and on the drive from the airport to the hotel you're like 'This is so cool! I want to see something! I want to go to the Eiffel Tower!' And then you leave the next morning. You think Oh I didn't get to do anything. I tell people: I've been just about everywhere but I've seen nothing.
My band is so dedicated everybody works very hard. The No. 1 priority is the show and it's pretty cool because we all pull together and it's fun. It's like being on a sports team or something.
As an investor what we're not looking for is 'oh this is a cool app ' it's 'is this something that can become a big business?' You need to find those that can become real businesses.
I love the song 'El Rey.' And for years I never knew what the song was totally about. It was something new for me. I'd never sung a song in Spanish before. Then I got the translation and saw what a really cool song it was.
But on another level it's really sort of this really cool coming of age story it reminds me of like The Breakfast Club or something like that if I can be so bold to associate with The Breakfast Club.
I think it's really cool how J. Lo's been able to balance an acting career and a music career. That's something I strive for.
Someone once told me that something they really liked about me was that they thought that I was really down to earth and not high-maintenance. I think that was cool. It's important to stay grounded.
Jazz took too much discipline. You have to come in at the right place which is different than me singing the blues where I can sing 'Oh baby ' if there's a pause in the melody. With jazz you better leave that space open or put in something real cool.
I have my new food line in the works - I think it's over 200 items. Hopefully I can make a difference it's delicious food that's just so easy. I think it'll help people enjoy their lives... it's good!
