"I'm a hustler. I don't get tired, I don't stop, I don't quit. I've been doing this for a long time, and I'm not going anywhere"
About this Quote
The cadence does most of the arguing. "I don't get tired, I don't stop, I don't quit" stacks negatives like a drum pattern, a three-hit combo designed to feel inevitable. It's not evidence, it's insistence. That matters because his career has been defined less by one artistic peak than by a long run of reinvention: producer, label boss, mogul, tastemaker. The subtext is defensive and competitive at once: you may doubt the talent, the taste, the ethics, the longevity - but you can't deny the motion.
"I've been doing this for a long time" invokes seniority in a youth-obsessed industry; "I'm not going anywhere" reads like a warning to rivals and a reassurance to investors and fans. It's the language of permanence from someone who understands pop culture's default setting is disposal. The intent is simple: collapse the distance between confidence and inevitability until they sound the same.
