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.

I don't sit under the tattoo gun unless I'm sold on it completely and it will define me as a person.

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

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.

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

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.

My fans are like no other. Completely original people.

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

American music culture is black culture.

Yela represents hunger, life, light, fire, power. Wolf speaks to my fighting spirit. The soul I put in my music.

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.

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.

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.

I think any artist that's going to become anything in this world faces humility: with great humility comes great success.

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.

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
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.

How many ya'll parents smoke weed? My momma still grows illegal weed in Alabama.
Yelawolf
The best part of performing is the people. I love interacting with people. My favorite part is the crowd. I love rocking out with the crowd, that's definitely the best part.
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.
