More quotes by Vince Staples
Everybody deserves a right to be happy.
Vince Staples
I feel like finding the balance is the struggle with making music in general.
Vince Staples
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.
Vince Staples
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.
Vince Staples
Just be comfortable. Sometimes, when open up for a bigger artist at a conventional concert, you can feel unwelcome. But when you're playing a festival, people come to see music in general - so don't be fearful. The people are there to enjoy and discover new music so approach the show with confidence and optimism.
Vince Staples
Every song with lyrics is lyrical.
Vince Staples
I've heard a lot of crack stories. I heard a RZA crack story, up close and personal, over a platter of 100 chicken wings that only him and his friend ate. It was a good day.
Vince Staples
I saw The Revenant, and they were calling Native Americans tree niggers, and that is not cool.
Vince Staples
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.
Vince Staples
Drugs are horrible I say no to drugs. I've never done drugs in my life.
Vince Staples
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.
Vince Staples
That's something that I've always gotten: a sense of humanity, a sense of awareness of yourself and the world around you.
Vince Staples
The police are very mean people sometimes.
Vince Staples
The work is the understanding of the people that you're speaking for. The further you get away from that, the further you are from the work.
Vince Staples
Music was never really something I wanted to do, so I never thought about it as a kid.
Vince Staples
I don't have a message. You already have all these people telling you how to live, who to be, what to wear, what to drive, what drugs to do - I just want people to see what I see.
Vince Staples
I don't care at all. I don't know the difference from one president to the next.
Vince Staples
We live in an age where everyone is so opinionated about everything in general in life, especially their expertise or their personal knowledge of anything that they're commenting on.
Vince Staples
If you're a voice for a community, then you're a voice for something more than yourself. I want to have an impact, because I don't want anybody to have to go through what I went through.
Vince Staples
I feel like it's impossible to be completely yourself, because you'll always get bored you have to push your own limits.
