More quotes by Wale
I wanna meet the person who wrote the Burlington Coat Factory thing, but that's cool. I would love to understand it more, but everything is good.
Wale
Every artist is supposed to get emotional. You're painting pictures of emotions.
Wale
Failure is not an option. Success is just a process.
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
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 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
I speak my mind. That's what we loved Tupac for.
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
In terms of 'Seinfeld', I think there's lot of reality in a show that's supposed to be about nothing.
Wale
You niggas so-so like a seamstress.
Wale
I'm just trying to make the best music I can possibly make and represent the new class or whatever. Myself and Cudi and Asher and B.o.B. That's all I can do at this point.
Wale
It's something to be Great, It's nothing to be Famous
Wale
I could have easily got T-Pain or anybody like that, but let me just get somebody very left. That'll wake them up. Gaga. She's never done a rap record before. Pay attention. It's a method to my madness.
Wale
I just wanna affect the culture and wanna be able to support young people with goals that aren't just limited to rapping and producing.
Wale
I'd love a super human memory. My memory has never been good.
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
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
I hope everybody thinks they've got the best album. I wouldn't have put mine out if I didn't think it was the best.
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
No days off. I'm a workaholic.
Wale
