I keep calling it a magic moment. That's what it's going to be. I feel that the stuff that I'm writing down, the directions that I'm thinking about going into...it doesn't even matter what producers [produce it], if it's Swizz Beatz, if it's [DJ] Premier, if it's it's Alchemist, Dr. Dre, Kanye West, all of these guys are guys that I love and guys that I've been talking to about getting in on the project. Actually, Kanye hit me up saying 'I want to do the album.' And RZA...Those dudes inspire me to go in there and do what I'm supposed to do at this day and age...I gotta deliver.
