More quotes by Wale
The Loudest person in the room, is usually the brokest
Wale
You never wanna see yourself there. Like, ever. I'd rather go to jail than see myself on Step Your Rap Game up because I take a lot of time with my stuff.
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
No days off. I'm a workaholic.
Wale
Every artist is supposed to get emotional. You're painting pictures of emotions.
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
Not to sound corny, but intelligence is big. Everything fades, and everything can be modified. But intelligence is something you cant fake. Im not even talking about whether you can read a thesaurus backwards. But there is a beauty in common sense.
Wale
I speak my mind. That's what we loved Tupac for.
Wale
All I’m saying is like, spoil me with your consistency Always remain the same you and you won’t have to worry about a different me
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
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
The first thing that's important is to really have people believe in you. If you have that, you can do anything.
Wale
I'm never satisfied, man. I'm Virgo. We overanalyze and we're never satisfied. So I'm gonna keep going 'til the wheels fall off.
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 don't want to be one of those guys that you see who made $4 million, invested $3.5 million, and now you work at Wendy's.
Wale
I want people to be like, 'Your album's just as good as Kendrick [Lamar]'s or Esperanza Spalding or Beck. I work just as hard as them.
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
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
May the optimism of tomorrow be your foundation for today.
Wale
Ambition is priceless, its something that's in your veins.
Wale
