More quotes by Yelawolf
I definitely prefer intimate crowds. I mean, those are always the best shows, like, a small venue. Packed to the gills. Hot, sweaty. Those are always the fun shows.

I'm from the South, and there's a different understanding of how to chop. There's a syllable play. It's a delicate art. Your accent has a lot to do with it. If you're from a certain area, words don't roll of your tongue as slick.

Name Yellow Wolf comes from life experiences. Yellow is the color of the sun - its power, fire, and hunger. Wolf represents my fierceness and ability to survive.
Yelawolf
Fans are all I care about - to be honest. If they stop coming to the shows, then I will get worried.

American music culture is black culture.
Yelawolf
The way I perceive an album to sound and the way I put out mixtapes are two different energies. There's a different focus there's a different sound.

Skateboarding is a part of Hip-Hop culture. I think it's the fifth element of Hip-Hop - emceeing, deejaying, b-boying, graffiti, and skateboarding. Skateboarders live and die on the streets. It's expression - it's everything that Hip-Hop is.

Most of my albums have a concept. They all have some kind of theme, some kind of feeling. I really take pride in that.
Yelawolf
The best part of performing is the people. I love interacting with people. My favorite part is the crowd. I love rocking out with the crowd, that's definitely the best part.

You don't want to get stuck with a record that you've done with someone that you feel obligated to put out - that's not really dope, just because you made an effort to get together and work.
Yelawolf
Everybody needs a release. Sometimes people mosh at my shows. That inspired me to make records to get the people more crunk. People need a release and I enjoy being an artist that can do that for people.
Yelawolf
Yela represents hunger, life, light, fire, power. Wolf speaks to my fighting spirit. The soul I put in my music.
Yelawolf
My grandmother, grandfather, my mom - we've always been driven by laughter. It's what held us together. Thanksgivings, any kind of family get-together, we usually end up in tears.
Yelawolf
Triple 6 Mafia and Mystikal in Atlanta was one of my first shows. I remember how sweaty and smashed up everybody was, and it was so punk rock.
Yelawolf
I think any artist that's going to become anything in this world faces humility: with great humility comes great success.
Yelawolf
Yeah, I have animosity, a chip on my shoulder. But I love, too.

This is hip-hop. If you've got something you want to rap about, just rap about it, man.
Yelawolf
Where I'm from is like 'Hustle Flow' versus '8 Mile.' It's that really grimy, box-Chevy, dope-boy, working-class music.
Yelawolf
It's hard being a white rapper sometimes! When that happens you just need to battle through.
Yelawolf
I just want to make a classic. Classic is the standard. I'm just trying to make music that will last a lifetime.
