Quote by Jay-Z

I'm a mirror. If you're cool with me, I'm cool with you, and the exchange starts. What you see is what you reflect. If you don't like what you see, then you've done something. If I'm standoffish, that's because you are.

Summary

This quote illustrates the concept of reciprocity in human relationships and interactions. It suggests that people's behavior towards each other is often a reflection of their own attitudes and actions. It implies that if someone treats another person with respect and kindness ("if you're cool with me"), then that person will reciprocate those positive feelings. On the contrary, if someone receives a negative or standoffish response from another person, it might indicate that they have exhibited similar behavior themselves. Essentially, the quote highlights the importance of self-awareness and acknowledging one's own role in shaping relationships.

Music is where I have the most creative freedom, but I love producing. To me, that's kind of where all the action is. You get a chance to have your hands in every aspect of a film. From picking a director, sometimes picking a writer, to the actors, the wardrobe, set design, editing, music, and marketing.
