More quotes by Yelawolf
Yeah, I have animosity, a chip on my shoulder. But I love, too.
Yelawolf
Yela represents hunger, life, light, fire, power. Wolf speaks to my fighting spirit. The soul I put in my music.
Yelawolf
Hip-hop for me has always been hardcore and edgy.
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
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
Where I'm from is like 'Hustle Flow' versus '8 Mile.' It's that really grimy, box-Chevy, dope-boy, working-class music.
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
Most of my albums have a concept. They all have some kind of theme, some kind of feeling. I really take pride in that.
Yelawolf
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.
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.
Yelawolf
This is hip-hop. If you've got something you want to rap about, just rap about it, man.
Yelawolf
Fans are all I care about - to be honest. If they stop coming to the shows, then I will get worried.
Yelawolf
You can usually tell when people aren't being authentic, but that goes for every artist, not just white artists.
Yelawolf
I think any artist that's going to become anything in this world faces humility: with great humility comes great success.
Yelawolf
How many ya'll parents smoke weed? My momma still grows illegal weed in Alabama.
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
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
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.
Yelawolf
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.
Yelawolf
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.
