I don't love all hip-hop, but I do relate to stuff like early Nas, 2Pac, Biggie, and MF Doom because they're also trying to escape a scenario.

More quotes by Lykke Li
I lived five years in Portugal and then spent winters in Nepal or India.
Lykke Li
Life is greater when I'm dealing with something than when I'm just dreaming away.
Lykke Li
I hate the fact you always feel like you have to be going somewhere, like the end destination is to be finished, or to be happy. But the truth is a lot of us are completely lost, and we don’t know, and that is also a state of mind, to not know who you are and where you’re going.
Lykke Li
It's not a very sane thing to try to be great all the time. You want to make something magical you want to make something wonderful you want to give to everybody you want to heal people you want to still be inspired. That's not easy.
Lykke Li
I was totally romanticizing the idea of Los Angeles when the Doors, Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young were hanging out there.
Lykke Li
Los Angeles is such a mysterious place because there's so much evil in that city, but there's also so much light. You can be totally alone on a hillside and I love that kind of secluded, deserted rawness.
Lykke Li
I feel it's so important to have strong women around you.
Lykke Li
I probably thought that about most of the things I did. But you wind up in situations where you have to make decisions very quickly, and you just go for it a lot of the time.
Lykke Li
In every person's life, around 27 to 29 years old, the stars and the planets align themselves to exactly the way they were when you were born. You're faced with yourself. There's no running away.
Lykke Li
It would be amazing if people listened to it when they needed shelter it would be lovely if they didn't spit on it.
Lykke Li
It's not a very sane thing to try to be great all the time.
Lykke Li
You can't stay in the desert, you go nuts after 24 hours.
Lykke Li
Driving, for me, means power and freedom. The feeling that I can go anywhere I want at any time is exhilarating.
Lykke Li
I was 19 when I recorded my first album, and I've been exposed to many things during these last few years all the baby fat is gone.
Lykke Li
I hung out with some crazy desert people. One guy was just walking around with only shorts on - he'd been walking with bare feet for the last two years. He was totally scarred and eating on all fours like a dog.
Lykke Li
I was going on this desert adventure with some friends and we were like, How amazing would it be to just drag all these mirrors out there? A lot of times I do things as an impulse and find out my inspirations afterward. Even with songs and lyrics, it can take me years to find out what I was actually trying to do.
Lykke Li
I do it live on tape with a band. It's not like I'm doing electronic music with a laptop.
Lykke Li
I'm from Sweden so I don't enjoy winter at all there's nothing cute about it.
Lykke Li
I was inspired by [Michelangelo] Antonioni's Red Desert - very big and moody.
Lykke Li
I wanted to create something really aggressive and psychedelic
