- (On his father) My hero is my father. He raised two stubborn ass kids in a society where it's so easy to fall off the right path. Even though I made mistakes he was and is always there for me to bring me back. I now realize every lecture, every party he never let me go to, ringing off my phone, and bothering the crap out of me was all for a reason. And for that, Mr. Neville Hinds, I genuinely thank you. I love you pops!
