“I realize the success that I have had is truly a blessing. One thing I’ve always wanted people to realize is, I’m just a regular guy who grew up in the projects. I used to play ball and sometimes get into trouble just like everyone else. But now I own my own record label. With that in mind, I think anybody growing up in the projects can identify with my story and say, “I can achieve that too!” I would love for every kid to be able to see my success as something achievable. Like my mother always said to me, “If your mind can conceiveit, and your heart can believe it, you can achieve it.” -Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter SC | FOUNDATION SHAWN CARTER FOUNDATION
