More quotes by Vince Staples
Someone who only wants to play sold-out shows will find a tempo that works at the shows and then focus on making that kind of music, but maybe they'll miss out on other things because of it.
Vince Staples
All my friends and family are either in prison or don't make enough money. I don't know what the president really does. I haven't been able to experience that kind of shift yet.
Vince Staples
I would for sure do a thousand dollar meet and greet because literally every single person knows where I live.
Vince Staples
When I was a kid I used to want to be a Beethoven or something. That was my dream.
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.

I just make what I'm making, and then one day I won't want to make it anymore. I think that's a luxury we should be able to have as people, especially as artists.

Vince Staples
Rappers kinda look stupid sometimes. Most of the time. I'm pretty sure I look stupid too a lot.
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.
Vince Staples
If you hit a kangaroo in the street and you have to pull out on the side of the road, it can get back up and murder you.
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
You have to be able to differentiate between the different areas of life. It shows that we're all separate people, we're all different, but we're all the same.
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
We're all equally important at the end of the day.
