More quotes by Vince Staples
That's the crazy part about music, that you can just be someone and it means something.
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
I say what I have to say at the moment and when I don't want to say it anymore, then I won't.
Vince Staples
I don't think you should criticize people's music because maybe it just isn't for you.
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'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
Where I come from, there's no common enemy, there's no why. There's no, I hate white people.
Vince Staples
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.
Vince Staples
Radio is better than writing because they can't lie. Cause sometimes writers be straight lying, bro, and these headlines be making me mad.
Vince Staples
I wouldn't say I fear the future.
Vince Staples
I'm getting old! My back hurts, I got asthma, I just been listening to Amy Winehouse, trying not to cry. Life's crazy.
Vince Staples
Drugs are horrible I say no to drugs. I've never done drugs in my life.
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
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
All the rhinos are dead, for the most part. I think that's really sad.
