More quotes by Andre Benjamin
As a rapper, I don't freestyle. I used to freestyle when I used to get drunk, and it didn't matter.
Andre Benjamin
SAD, BUT ONE DAY OUR KIDS WILL HAVE TO VISIT MUSEUMS TO SEE WHAT A LADY LOOKS LIKE.
Andre Benjamin
If you look at old football pictures, the jerseys were hanging, the sleeves were dangling, but now everything is tucked and tailored.
Andre Benjamin
As a rapper, your verses are like a window in to who you are.
Andre Benjamin
Sometimes your fans are way deeper than you are. They think you meant something like this big power-of-the-world thing that you said, but really you were just trying to find a word to rhyme with another word.
Andre Benjamin
I live by the beat like you live check to check. If you don't move your feet then I don't eat, So we like neck to neck.

When I'm shooting a film, I don't look at playback. I don't go and do a scene and then hurry up and watch what I just did. I never look at it so I haven't seen any of it.
Andre Benjamin
Nothing lasts forever, so what makes love the exception.
Andre Benjamin
It's funny, I don't even consider myself a rapper, I don't consider myself a designer, or even an actor. I just like creating stuff and trying to make good work, whatever it is. I don't care if it's designing toothbrushes. It's just making cool stuff to leave behind, that's all it is, it's nothing more.
Andre Benjamin
Askin what happened to the feelin that her and me had, I pray so much about it, need some knee pads.
Andre Benjamin
Sometimes nostalgia is a cage.
Andre Benjamin
I don't mind opinions, because you like something or you don't like something, but to say things about your personal life? I'm like, Man, let me quit reading this. 'Cause I'll stab everybody.
Andre Benjamin
They can bite, but cannot be us, They can come and pick up little slang but cannot see us, You ought to be ashamed trying to fit in my adidas, So Run like DMC like you don't know you got no heater
Andre Benjamin
Hip-hop don't have no fresh energy, none at all. It's money driven, everybody tryin' to make that cheque, nobody putting art in their albums any more.
Andre Benjamin
I've learned that I'm most powerful when I'm doing my art.
Andre Benjamin
I'm a vegan, but I like to look good, too.
Andre Benjamin
Look at Scottish guys wearing kilts - you could look at them and laugh, but the way they carry themselves, how can you? You can wear some of the weirdest things and be cool. If you believe in it, that's what makes it cool.
Andre Benjamin
I had six silly tattoos done when I was young and I bitterly regret them. I've thought about laser surgery, but that leaves a scar, so I'm just leaving them.
