More quotes by Vince Staples
The police are very mean people sometimes.
Vince Staples
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.
Vince Staples
When I was a kid if you didn't have Lil in front of your name, you were trash.
Vince Staples
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
I wake up sometimes with an idea and then I write it down. It's not necessarily easy, but when you focus on something it comes.
Vince Staples

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 live to die better that than to live a lie.
Vince Staples
I've had a lot of people online say they're going to kill me at my shows. A lot of people say they're going to punch me in the face - never happened. It's just people being sad because their life sucks.
Vince Staples
When people ask me my influences and I'm like, nobody they're like, there has to be somebody. People seem to think you have to have an influence.
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
I think I'm pretty regular. I try to keep it pretty regular I go to sleep early. I don't know what distances me from other rap artists - I haven't met a lot of 'em.
Vince Staples
