More quotes by Pusha T
The passion for sneakers has been there since day one, but I never held onto them. I never shrunkwrap them. It's always been about getting it, buying it, wearing it, showing it and moving on to the next one.
Pusha T
I don't ever want anyone to hear my music and look at it as just gratuitous violence, or hustling and money-getting - I try to tell the perspective of the woman, the man, the mind, why.
Pusha T
Fashion is just really standing up in the forefront and it's being even mentioned at the same level as the music. I sort of feel like that's where it gets a little sketchy.
Pusha T
I feel like people can feel when something is natural. I think they can tell.
Pusha T
Of course fashion is definitely playing a part.
Pusha T
I don't want people to see what I've been doing at Play Cloths for nine years and built from a streetwear independence standpoint through Japanese streetwear - I don't want that to be shifted into something else.

That competition grew through high school and you step outside more and it grew through college. Then you had regional style speak volumes through college. As you get older, and begin to travel and see more, that was the progression of style for me.

Sonically, musicians always go above and beyond in our efforts to disrupt radio. It's always about being different. Our radio is never conventional anyway.
Pusha T
The thing that I realize about fashion now, fashion and music, now versus back then is that you had to have fresh records and be fresh.
Pusha T
I can't say that music ever made me do anything.
Pusha T
This is my time, this is my hour, This is my pain, this is my name, this is my power. If it's my reign, then it's my shower, This pole position...I made a lane 'cause they blocked ours.
Pusha T
I got a voodoo doll every time I pen a verse: Not only do they say they feel it, but they say it hurts.
Pusha T
I don't think I'm a collector. I think every kid from where I'm from had a terrible passion for having to have fresh kicks.
Pusha T
I feel like Hip Hop culture has always been about [fashion]...it started in the street so it has always been a thing of the streets to be first.
Pusha T
Beef is best served like steak: Well done, get a gun in ya face.
Pusha T
Let's be honest, the cards' on the table: Jealousy's a sin, Cain killed Abel. Backstabber...Caesar had Brutus. It's hard to weed 'em out, even Jesus had Judas.
Pusha T
To me it's just the knock, man. It's the knock and the groove of the beat. When I start a song, it's the first thought. It's the first thought and the first cadence, because that's the most natural. You know what I'm saying? I feel like people can feel when something is natural.
Pusha T
Pain is joy when it cries, it's my smile in disguise.
Pusha T
I talk specifically to the lifestyle and those who can relate to it. And I feel like, where the creativity comes in, is where you draw the parallels that everybody can relate to. That's where it's creative for me. I feel like it works best that way.
Pusha T
My mama didn't see it comin, my daddy was there. What's my excuse? Cartoons were the root. Started with Yosemite Sam With the gun in the palm of the hand, What couldn't I demand?
