“It does, actually. It gets better because I know the crew now. Everyone kind of knows what they're good at and like what I'm good at. And so, no, it gets easier. The outfits don't. So, let's see what happens.”

“I've never done like a music awards. But I mean, it's always fun to like come out and just, you know, do something that's a little bit fraught and it's sort of outside the box of what it is that you normally do.”
(Reporter: Do you follow music, or is it an education coming to things like this?)
“I love music. You know, I don't listen to the radio so much. But I love music. So, I mean, I'm excited to see everyone that's here tonight.”

13. SOUNDBITE (English) Busta Rhymes, recording artist - on custom-made clothing:
“I mean, the majority of my whole career is custom because, you know, it started off like that as a result of circumstance. I didn't have the money to go into the high-end boutiques and purchase Louis and Gucci when I was young, so I had a great friend by the name of Rashid Booth and he was Muslim and they – him and his family, they made a lot of their clothes because they went to the (New York) fabric district to create their grab. So what he showed me when we didn't have no money, which was also a blessing, was at the time, six yards, five yards at $6 a yard, is $30. You can make a whole outfit with that. You get an extra yard – you can actually get that extra yard to custom your Timberland boot, your sneakers. And even though your whole outfit would cost $30 to $35 from fabric and then probably be $20 to $30 for the seamstress who would custom your fit, the one thing you never had to worry about was somebody else looking like you.”
(Reporter: “There we go.”)
“You know what I'm saying? So those who went to the high-end boutiques and spent five, six, $700 on outfit, they definitely risk looking like somebody else. Well, I pulled up cost effectively looking like $1 trillion.”
