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 go to clubs and throw money and pop bottles. That's not my thing, no disrespect.

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.

I'm not ashamed of anything that I've done because when I did it, I was passionate about it and I was doing it for a reason.

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.

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
I definitely prefer intimate crowds. I mean, those are always the best shows, like, a small venue. Packed to the gills. Hot, sweaty. Those are always the fun shows.

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.

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.

It's hard being a white rapper sometimes! When that happens you just need to battle through.
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
Just because a rapper is white, I don't feel the need to attack them.
Yelawolf
Hip-hop for me has always been hardcore and edgy.
Yelawolf
I'm always gonna have the darker edgy music it is always in my pocket because it comes so naturally to me.

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
Fans are all I care about - to be honest. If they stop coming to the shows, then I will get worried.
Yelawolf
Yeah, I have animosity, a chip on my shoulder. But I love, too.
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.
