It's sad, but like jail, the music industry is a trap, too. Like movies, positive stuff doesn't get the promotion that action movies, guns and violence gets. So I jumped the gate and gave it to 'em just like that. I did a song called 'I Wanna [Expletive] You,' and it's a success."](http://alt.coxnewsweb.com/cnishared/tools/shared/mediahub/09/35/59/slideshow_859359_51VWlORLtVL._SS500_.jpg)
