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.
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.
Yelawolf
People are not really that forgiving when they pay for tickets to come see you and you don't show up.
Yelawolf
Where I'm from is like 'Hustle Flow' versus '8 Mile.' It's that really grimy, box-Chevy, dope-boy, working-class music.

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.

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

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 equally love both, classic rock and hip-hop. I love all music, really, and I really use classic rock a lot. I'm heavily influenced by that melodically in my music. I can't really separate the two.
Yelawolf
I do so much music that it's like a fog, and I can't even remember all of it.
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.

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

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.

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.
Yelawolf
My fans are like no other. Completely original people.

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.
Yelawolf
I love performing. I love getting out there. It's kind of like why I make music.
Yelawolf
This is hip-hop. If you've got something you want to rap about, just rap about it, man.
Yelawolf
I'm never scared what people are gonna think about music that I make.
Yelawolf
I don't go to clubs and throw money and pop bottles. That's not my thing, no disrespect.
