Hip Quotes

As long as I’m around the cats in the hip hop scene, they’ll throw me a track and I’ll write a rap over it Picture Quote #1

I believe hip hop is being used in some mass way to influence underachievement Picture Quote #1

I come from nowhere Brooklyn, New York. Williamsburg, Brooklyn. These days Williamsburg is kind of a hip area, but when I grew up there, the taxi drivers wouldn’t even go over the bridge, it was so dangerous Picture Quote #1

When I was CEO, and I’d listen to music, a lot of people listen to music and you get inspiration from it. And a lot of things in hip hop are very instructive for being in business. Particularly, hip hop is a lot about business, and so it was very useful for me in any job Picture Quote #1

Here’s Kanye, the great musical genius of his generation in hip hop, but, like, society really can’t even deal with him because he’s always saying something that people go, ‘Oh, I can’t believe Kanye said that. I can’t believe he did that.’ Picture Quote #1

For me, Christianity is not a genre. It’s faith. The Gospel is not a genre either. It’s faith. I definitely understand the semantics of naming things to give them some kind of distinction but I think my faith is pretty distinct. If you want to call it hip hop, essentially it is. That’s the art form Picture Quote #1

I really love hip hop. My cousin Nas came out with an album Life Is Good, and I love that album, but I also love Maroon 5 Picture Quote #1

I grew up listening to Tupac, Biggie and other hip hop artists in the 90s. To this day, their music is still some of my favorite Picture Quote #1

Hip hop culture has done more for race relations in American than anything since Martin Luther King. And I really believe that Picture Quote #1

I grew up with my older brother listening to hip hop, and Jay-Z was the main person I listened to. When it comes to his word play, he’s just out of this world. That’s my biggest inspiration when it comes to writing lyrics Picture Quote #1

The music I heard growing up, since there was no TV or cinema or record covers, I didn’t know if it was black, white, hip, square, male, female... whatever. I’d hear melodies and things and got intrigued on that level Picture Quote #1

I was lucky enough to see the original cast of ‘In the Heights.’ This one blew my mind. The infusion of Latin, hip hop and rap with musical theatre, great storytelling and talent was a powerful combination to me during a time when I’d not been moved by much! Picture Quote #1

It hit me that being hip was a full-time job, and I was only a part-timer. I couldn’t hide forever that I liked county fairs, particularly the goat booth at the 4-H tent, or that I once spent a week with my grandmother at her house in the giant retirement community of Sun City, Arizona, and it was one of the most carefree times of my life Picture Quote #1

I have no desire to be hip to the latest black slang and do the stereotypical black thing. I was a Richard Pryor fan, and I have used profanity in my act. But when it becomes a whole thing that defines blacks, we’re limiting ourselves. The enemy is us Picture Quote #1

I go down to New York, do the project, and leave. I have no interest in participating in the rat race down there. Hip jazz fans know who I am. There’s a generation of musicians in New York who know my records better than I do Picture Quote #1

I feel like your city - with hip hop in particular, because we’re always beating our chest and shouting where we’re from - your city is just as influential as your parents. Even the grimy, hardcore gangster rap from New York - KRS-One and Wu Tang, the stuff acknowledges it Picture Quote #1

We’ve always talked about doing something else and Campbell Scott is always busy and I’m always busy. But when we came up with the idea of doing the potato famine as a hip hop musical, I wanted somebody who was going to bring gravity Picture Quote #1

Everyone’s hip to the fact that we all do things to accentuate our looks - and it’s much more accepted Picture Quote #1

I think things are gonna change. I’m gonna take the age limit off of hip hop Picture Quote #1

After my hip operation, I had to cut out butter, which I loved, and salt. I no longer eat desserts with lots of cream, and I’ve cut right back on alcohol Picture Quote #1

I hate leg exercises. I hate one-legged squats. I hate the hurdles and the split squats. I hate all the leg exercises. I know they help me, and I’m able to move around and don’t have knee problems, and my hip doesn’t hurt anymore, but when my trainer tells me I have to do them, I almost feel like my body goes into convulsions Picture Quote #1

I love things that are very broad. I love alternative, rock, hip hop, rap, and I’ll go to classical or jazz Picture Quote #1

Hip hop is still strong. As an art form, music helps people express themselves, find meaning in their own lives and connect with their tribes Picture Quote #1

You have to look at the fact that Hip Hop is under attack. It’s not just Hip Hop but Black people, Latino people and all people are under attack for different things Picture Quote #1

My shows will always be inspired by hip hop culture and my upbringing within it Picture Quote #1

Rituals are important. Nowadays it’s hip not to be married. I’m not interested in being hip Picture Quote #1

I was trying to break out of the suburbs, and when I did break out, I don’t think I took my whole self with me - I think I played a role of being too cool and hip Picture Quote #1

The most important thing to a lot of people, is to belong to something that’s hip or whatever. To be a part of something that’s not society, just a clique Picture Quote #1
