All those who came out of my neighborhood before me. Beyond those you see on TV, the most important people are those who are close to you because they share the same reality.

More quotes by Young Thug
I'm always in range of a microphone. I even have a studio at home.
Young Thug
I repeat it until it works. It is important to record, otherwise you lose ideas. That's why I never stay away from the studio, I always [have] something to ask.
Young Thug
I feel close to [Kanye West]. We're friends, this is not just a working relationship.
Young Thug
Today I live in the suburbs, in a neighborhood [that's not] too bad.
Young Thug
This is where the guys who copy me are planted: I do not use auto-tune, I sing. That's my advice!
Young Thug
I know that everybody listens to me, but only my true fans will go and buy my album.
Young Thug
I never write. Never! I do not even remember if I can write … This is a true freestyle in general. I put a beat, I said some stuff, I retain ideas, I do it again, with a particular intonation, I test, and especially I record live.
Young Thug
I know I have this image but in reality, if you take all my records, I had to use five or six [tracks].
Young Thug
The same image that I have of all the countries where I am supposed to go: it's far, it's different, it will be necessarily complicated ... It's another part of the world for me coming [from] the United States.
Young Thug
I'm pretty sure JAY Z don't wanna rap right now.
Young Thug
It was stressful [to live as a child in a Sylvian Hills]. It's always been complicated, honestly... I do not really want to tell you, actually. It bothers me that you want me to tell this.
Young Thug
I know, every time I get somewhere, it'll be strange. But if I understand correctly, I also have fans here and it reassures me.
Young Thug
I'm signed to Atlantic through 300 Entertainment [Lyor Cohen's label]. That is my only contractual relationship.
Young Thug
For a long time I heard rap without paying attention, but it is still a way of life, even when you're a kid.
Young Thug
Mixtapes, it's for everyone and you throw them in the trash quickly. While an album is an object that only your real fans take the trouble to buy and know you have prepared something special.
Young Thug
The best way to use the auto-tune is not to! And that's what I do: I do not use auto-tune!
Young Thug
I don't want my kids saying, 'My dad was a gangster, so I need to be a gangster. I would rather mine say, 'My dad was a stunna, so I need to be a stunna.'
Young Thug
When my song Danny Glover leaked, I was a little bummed, but it finally allowed Kanye West [to listen]. One of my biggest surprises was his reaction: he liked [it] and he said he wanted to make a record together.
Young Thug
This is the industry that wants [music], the rap industry. You have to be on deck all the time, but you do not have the time to do the album. It is an energy, it must be present in everyday life.
Young Thug
You must not you worry about leaks or pieces [stolen] on your computer. You just make songs, you gotta make music, keep stuff out. You may not know rap, but that's how it works.
