Where I'm from is like 'Hustle Flow' versus '8 Mile.' It's that really grimy, box-Chevy, dope-boy, working-class music.

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.

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.

American music culture is black culture.

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

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
I just want to make a classic. Classic is the standard. I'm just trying to make music that will last a lifetime.

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.

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.

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.

Just because a rapper is white, I don't feel the need to attack them.
Yelawolf
I love performing. I love getting out there. It's kind of like why I make music.
Yelawolf
I'm never in the mood to eat or drink when I get to a show. I'm just too nerved out.
Yelawolf
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.

How many ya'll parents smoke weed? My momma still grows illegal weed in Alabama.
Yelawolf
Yela represents hunger, life, light, fire, power. Wolf speaks to my fighting spirit. The soul I put in my music.
Yelawolf
I'm always gonna have the darker edgy music it is always in my pocket because it comes so naturally to me.
Yelawolf
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
Most of my albums have a concept. They all have some kind of theme, some kind of feeling. I really take pride in that.

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

My fans are like no other. Completely original people.
