I haven't been a gay activist. I haven't protested for gay rights or none of that, but one thing I can say is that a lot of the designers I wear are gay and I like their clothes.
ASAP Rocky
I don't cook, 'cause I don't know how to cook.

I strive for perfection, but Im not perfect. But what I can say is my morals are totally different than any other 24-year-old rapper my age now. I look at life totally different. A whole other aspect. I have different views and morals on life in general. And opinions.
ASAP Rocky
I want to be the first guy to help people accept everybody for who they are. I'm talking about colors, religions, sex, everybody. My music is for everybody, it's not just for one kind of group.

ASAP Rocky
I really want to do the unexpected, and I think that's what I did when I executed 'Long.Live.A$AP.' I wanted people to really see the message and that I'm an artist who not only has the capability of rapping, but of composing great music both for people of my generation and for people with different backgrounds.
ASAP Rocky
Why can't I be friends with somebody who's gay? Why not? You can miss out on a lot by being so small-minded and stereotypical about people. It's stupid.
ASAP Rocky
I dress how I feel. I just go off emotion. I can't prepare my outfit a day before. Everything I wear is spontaneous.
ASAP Rocky
I would not consider myself to be a quote unquote real New York rapper. I don't even like New York rappers.
ASAP Rocky
New York gave me hell for that 'Purple Swag,' man. They didn't respect me until 'Peso.'
ASAP Rocky
I hate the hype. When 50 Cent came out, people were saying that he was the best rapper alive: Oh, he got shot nine times, he's better than Tupac, he's better than Biggie. That was all hype.
ASAP Rocky
I wanted to model when I was younger.
