To every ghetto, from Queensbridge, to Kingston, to Africa. Thanks to all the real rap n***as and lovers of God's music from the streets. To Destiny (my life) and Mom (my strength). Shout outs to everyone... keep smilin', life is pain... get over it. Be happy, f** negativity. We kings and queens of the universe, makers and molders, gods and goddesses. Don't take anybody sh**! Get smart, get started, get money and get high. The time is now! Peace blessing and miracles. Be a leader. Make love and history. Learn from foul, lost people! You are everything To Ill Will 4 watchin' my back and guidin' me. Can't wait to see you dawg. Don't worry, I got u! - Executive Producer: DESTINY JONES Album Mastered by: CHRIS GEHRINGER at Sterling Sound Studios, NYC A&R Direction: LENNY "LINEN" NICHOLSON A&R Manager: MAX GOLD Product Manager: DAVID BELGRAVE Art Direction and Design: CHRIS FELMANN Stillmatic Tag: JULIAN ALEXANDER Imaging: WILL KENNEDY Photography: SACHA WALDMAN Styling: TOMEKA FOSTER
