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.

Melody always comes to me first before words - cadence and melody. When you're humming the melody and it's incredible and words start coming out it can build into something special.
Yelawolf
Fans are all I care about - to be honest. If they stop coming to the shows, then I will get worried.
Yelawolf
People are not really that forgiving when they pay for tickets to come see you and you don't show up.

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.

I'm always gonna have the darker edgy music it is always in my pocket because it comes so naturally to me.

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.

I don't go to clubs and throw money and pop bottles. That's not my thing, no disrespect.

Sometimes I want to party, sometimes I want to fight and sometimes I want to cry.

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.

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.

This is hip-hop. If you've got something you want to rap about, just rap about it, man.

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.

There's no real outlet for making Hip-Hop in Alabama. You need to travel to get heard. You really need to be working though. You need to be going at it every day and getting yourself seen, getting yourself out there on the road, doing shows, making music. It's all about being on your grind.

American music culture is black culture.
Yelawolf
I do so much music that it's like a fog, and I can't even remember all of it.
Yelawolf
Yeah, I have animosity, a chip on my shoulder. But I love, too.

I can tell you that when you're willing to give your life up to see a dream through, the reward is great.

You can usually tell when people aren't being authentic, but that goes for every artist, not just white artists.

Most of my albums have a concept. They all have some kind of theme, some kind of feeling. I really take pride in that.
