More quotes by 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.

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
This is hip-hop. If you've got something you want to rap about, just rap about it, man.

Fans are all I care about - to be honest. If they stop coming to the shows, then I will get worried.
