More quotes by Wale
Jay-Z's my favorite rapper, but why can't I aspire to be better than him?
Wale
There's a lot of real unity - and a lot fake unity, sadly. I think a lot of people are going to get an opportunity to pursue greatness and pursue careers outside of D.C. Not everybody is going to make it. I think there's a connotation that there's a lack of rappers out there.
Wale
I don't wanna sound pretentious talking about myself.
Wale
Maybe they just like me because they like me, and they don't like me because they feel like they have to like me because they like this person or that person.
Wale
Charles is Charles. Wale is Wale. It's two separate entities that have nothing to do with each other and probably will never have anything to do with each other and I wish him the best.
Wale
You're the artist - you make the music that you want to make.
Wale
Initially, I felt like my duty was to just keep it positive and be positive and sometimes I crack in that. We're human. I'm imperfect at times and that was just me being imperfect at that one point.
Wale
Most artists should be able to make the album that they want. You don't necessarily pick the singles that you want when you're making a record, but for the most part it's the same process.
Wale
I'm a regular person. I know a lot of people love being famous. I don't like it. I'm just chillin'. YouknowwhatI'msayin'?
Wale
The Loudest person in the room, is usually the brokest
Wale
May the optimism of tomorrow be your foundation for today.
Wale
I speak my mind. That's what we loved Tupac for.
Wale
I dated a lot, but I never really had anyone who was worthy of an anniversary. And most girlfriends never made it to a year, anyway.
Wale
If I woke up tomorrow and didn't have a dolla, as long as I have my heart, I can get it all over.
Wale
I dated all these girls and ended up not liking them and thought to myself, 'What was it that all of them had in common?' They had too much time on their hands. Even though they were pretty, they lacked something. A woman could be less attractive but with ambition and drive, that's the most beautiful thing.
Wale
When you're just reading a note card but when you're just reading a note card and it doesn't even feel real, it's difficult at times. But I have no problem doing interviews. So I have absolutely no problem doing interviews.
Wale
I'm a black man in the United States of America, so I always feel like there's a target on me.
Wale
Mix-tapes are something that have been going on for a while. They've been pretty important to hip-hop. It's the way we advertise our music to the public for free.
Wale
In terms of 'Seinfeld', I think there's lot of reality in a show that's supposed to be about nothing.
Wale
I'm not really caught up with celebrity women. I think a regular girl that goes to school or works at a Complex or Spin or Blender or whatever, one of those magazines. She'd probably be flyer to me than the person she's writing about.
Wale
