More quotes by Ayo Maff

The importance of one’s legacy is being you. The legacy of never forgetting your roots.

I just wanted to let all my people know that I’m here to stay, and also let them know that the streets would always win.

It’s pretty important especially because I didn’t choose that path, it chose me.

I have to uphold it as best as I could. It’s not even about pressure, because I’m living life and making music on my terms.
