More quotes by 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
The police are very mean people sometimes.
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
I would for sure do a thousand dollar meet and greet because literally every single person knows where I live.
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
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
Every song with lyrics is lyrical.
Vince Staples
When you have this job [as an entertainer] you're suddenly not a person anymore.
Vince Staples
I don't have any dreams or aspirations or goals I want to meet music-wise, so there's nothing to keep me from being level-headed.
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.
