More quotes by Pusha T
I try to make Play Cloths really representative of me and my designers they look at my evolution as an artist and in fashion and they [zero] in to different details. I come into the office some days and they're like, 'What are those? [I say,] [These] are Philip Lim...[I'll] have on Philip Lim sweats and they go and put their spin on it.
Pusha T
We shoppers, you bloggers. If money talks, you mumblers. You try it on, then take it off, Then post a pic on your tumblrs.
Pusha T
Even with social media and where we are...everything is about the look.
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 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.
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 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
For me, being a rap fan and the nostalgia of me being a kid, rappers and guys on the street told me everything to wear. That was it. I didn't necessarily read too many fashion books. Then it got competitive in junior high school. It was moreso about, You don't got these. Everybody could be fresh, but you don't got these.
Pusha T
Women's style is so hard for me. I just know what I think looks good.
Pusha T
Hip-hop to me right now is really easy listening. It's very easy listening, like there's nothing abrasive about it. There's no album that I put in my car that makes me roll down the windows - all the windows - and ride past the club line three times before I get out the car.
Pusha T
I can't say that music ever made me do anything.
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
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
Pain is joy when it cries, it's my smile in disguise.
Pusha T
Of course fashion is definitely playing a part.
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 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
I believe there's a god above me, I'm just the god of everything else!
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
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.
