Recovering from failure is often easier than building from success.
I come from an era where you just build something. Me and Common built what we built from Chicago from scratch.
And, yes, I love the process of building.
At the beginning of every role I take, I have to start from basics and build it up. It's like a new construction.
I love making things. I love building things. I love the idea that something's in the world that wasn't there before.
It takes a lot of spine and stomach to make yourself into something when no one gives you a foundation.
Writing anything, it sorta starts the way you'd build a castle at the beach. You're just taking your hands and you're mounting up sand.
It's better to build than to buy if you can find the right people.
