More quotes by Yelawolf
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.

People are not really that forgiving when they pay for tickets to come see you and you don't show up.

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.

Fans are all I care about - to be honest. If they stop coming to the shows, then I will get worried.

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.

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.

I do so much music that it's like a fog, and I can't even remember all of it.

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

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

For real, some of my favorite music is Mexican. It's something about the bassline and the drumming. I can't even speak Spanish, but that's probably why I like it so much.

You learn how to be an individual quick after 15 schools, man. After the first five or six, you realize you're always gonna be the new kid.
Yelawolf
Anyone can relate to struggle, whether you're European or Asian. Anyone can relate to having to get up and go to work and eat.
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.

Entangled between a dream and a coma.

Just because a rapper is white, I don't feel the need to attack them.
Yelawolf
I don't go to clubs and throw money and pop bottles. That's not my thing, no disrespect.
Yelawolf
Hip-hop is the only music in the world where you can take any instrument and make it hip hop. It's anybody's music. It's what you make of it. That's for anything you do in life.

My homies in Gadsden aren't as exposed as I am culturally, which is awesome - that's why I love going home. I'm in the kitchen with people who don't know anything but the simple life, what's important to them, and what's dope.

It's hard being a white rapper sometimes! When that happens you just need to battle through.
