More quotes by Yelawolf
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.
Yelawolf
Sometimes I want to party, sometimes I want to fight and sometimes I want to cry.
Yelawolf
I'm never in the mood to eat or drink when I get to a show. I'm just too nerved out.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

1,2,3, I'm at the Chelsey Hotel, like, Sid and Nancy, with knife, and two grams of candy

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
Yeah, I have animosity, a chip on my shoulder. But I love, too.
Yelawolf
Fans are all I care about - to be honest. If they stop coming to the shows, then I will get worried.
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.
Yelawolf
I'm always gonna have the darker edgy music it is always in my pocket because it comes so naturally to me.
Yelawolf
I can tell you that when you're willing to give your life up to see a dream through, the reward is great.

I don't sit under the tattoo gun unless I'm sold on it completely and it will define me as a person.
