“I look for next year to be an even bigger year. We just brought Jah Cure to the team. That’s one of the biggest reggae superstars in the game. We just did a deal with that. Look for that first quarter. I’m talking to artist out of Philly that I think is the future of Philly. Meek Millz, I’m talking to him right now about Maybach Music. As well as I’m talking to Wale.
Wale is a hustler. I feel he’s one record away from being the next nigga. He’s just a naturally fly nigga. Slick talking nigga. That’s right up my alley. I just think that comradery, riding with Rozay, it’ll mean that much more. I feel he’s one record away. As well as Meek Millz.”
Keri Hilson – Toy Soldier

“It’s basically my way of saying ‘girl power’. The album is about empowering women to be themselves and keep control of their confidence… It’s not about alienating men, it’s just about wanting to school them on what it takes to be considered a man as opposed to a boy.”
