Quote

When kids can't come to my show, I feel bad, because grown-up 21 and up people really probably don't need my help as much as an 11-year-old child.

I feel like finding the balance is the struggle with making music in general.

I was never like, Oh man, I want a Grammy and I'll do whatever it takes. Someone like that might not do what it takes to have a decent touring career, because they're in the studio trying to master whatever they're doing to win a Grammy.

I live in a pretty liberal place, so it's a lot of hidden racism and things like that. If you really look up California, it's a really shitty place when it comes to things like that. So I think it will just take time. Old people have to die. Once the generation right under my Mom dies, we'll be fine.

It really hurts my feelings when people are mean to old people, or when people yell at their little kids. Just ask them what's wrong, bro. I think we all just need to be nicer.

Hip-hop culture is deeply rooted in the wrong things. Hip-hop is about drugs right now. It's more so about drugs - about selling drugs, about using drugs - it's bad for kids.

I hate when a show has an age limit. Like a little tiny child is standing outside, like, 'Hey, I wanted to go but I couldn't.' That sucks.

It's human nature, we take a mile when we're given an inch. We're crazy. You see what we did to the animals! They don't even exist anymore!

Drugs are horrible I say no to drugs. I've never done drugs in my life.
Vince Staples
Image
I feel like that's the reason a lot of pop music doesn't have that grasp that other forms of music do, because it's more rooted in only the happier aspects of life - there's not really a connection.

I love Louisiana fried fish, but it's all Martin Luther King, I can't go over there.

There's a price tag on everything including black people's lives and what they do with them.

That's the crazy part about music, that you can just be someone and it means something.
Vince Staples

I don't really have a focus, I just make music.

I think there's too much of the wrong type of influences that stem from hip-hop.

We have bad things happen, but it's not like Syria, which we ignore and pretend doesn't happen. We've got it pretty good, no matter who the president is, to be honest.

I don't think I've ever been personally fulfilled performing. It's kind of a challenging thing it's more of a sacrifice for the people that I love.

Music was never really something I wanted to do, so I never thought about it as a kid.

I usually just have ideas when I have them.
