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

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

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
I do so much music that it's like a fog, and I can't even remember all of it.
Yelawolf
I'm never in the mood to eat or drink when I get to a show. I'm just too nerved out.

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.

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.

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
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
I love performing. I love getting out there. It's kind of like why I make music.
Yelawolf
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
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.

Yela represents hunger, life, light, fire, power. Wolf speaks to my fighting spirit. The soul I put in my 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
Entangled between a dream and a coma.
Yelawolf
Hip-hop for me has always been hardcore and edgy.
Yelawolf
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.
