Rap Quotes

It’s an accompaniment to life. It’s not something that I do to rap; I smoke when I open my eyes... I don’t know any other feeling Picture Quote #1

I was a little too antsy, I was jumping around, wanting to go here, wanting to be there. Once I started smoking weed, I just wanted to stay and play the video game and rap. You spend good time with your daughter, man, after you go smoke, chill with your daughter. You’re willing to do whatever she want to do Picture Quote #1

Kids who are least impressive in my class are the ones who only listen to one kind of music. They only listen to country or only to rap or to gospel or anything. It’s a sad thing. I try really hard to get them to go out and listen to things. It’s amazing what you learn... I’m still trying to learn. It’s not like I’m going to be a calypso singer. That’s not going to happen, but I’m sure there’s something in that, that I can learn from and apply to my own work Picture Quote #1

I think rap definitely has its place in the art world. I think it is an art form. But, just like any art form, you can misuse it Picture Quote #1

The justification for rap rock seems to be that if you take really bad rock and put really bad rap over it, the result is somehow good, provided the raps are barked by an overweight white guy with cropped hair and forearm tattoos Picture Quote #1

I can’t stand rap... people who can’t sing do rap... you can sing rebellion as well as talk it... Hitler would have been in a rap band Picture Quote #1

Hackney gets a bit of a bad rap, but it’s the only place I’ve ever lived that felt like a community. I know my neighbours Picture Quote #1

Pop songs are not as graceful as they used to be. Performers today haven’t gone through the regimen of learning how to write. And of course, everyone wants to own copyrights. Rap culture is interesting and different and has purpose, but it has a nonromantic view of life and of social feelings. There may be a void in that Picture Quote #1

A digital sound sample in angry rap doesn’t correspond to the graffiti but the wall Picture Quote #1

I think rap music has made more money on dance music than dance music has made on dance music. Just a thought Picture Quote #1

You’re not going to hear me do a rap song, you’re not going to hear me do a jazz song. We have to be true to our roots, do what we do, and try to do it a little better each time Picture Quote #1

See, I don’t expect to win a prize for stoic control and dignity at mourning time. Death deserve tantrums. Beating back shocked indignation, kicks in the groin, stones, classified unacceptable, not to be tolerated, not to be wooed, not to be conspired with. Only then can music, dance, movies, plays, rap be about life. Only then can life be cherished and adored Picture Quote #1

My music is pretty honest. I can’t rap on science fiction. Punk is from the street Picture Quote #1

I’m not big on rap, to be honest. I just don’t get it. It’s angry people shouting. I like a song, melodies, people singing Picture Quote #1

Rap comes from the oral tradition. The oral tradition gives voice to those who would’ve otherwise been voiceless Picture Quote #1

I’m also not going to explain something just because I said it in a rap. Take what you want from it Picture Quote #1

When I rap, it’s just an extension of how I speak, and that’s how I talk. If you don’t like it, don’t listen Picture Quote #1

It just happens to be that people like to associate poetry and rap music. I think that idea is kind of corny Picture Quote #1

I think music talks to you on an emotional level, regardless of where you’re from. I guess I related to the tempo of rap, the aggressiveness Picture Quote #1

I’m really a singer, so I love songs and I love singing. I like rap music, but I didn’t grow up freestyling Picture Quote #1

I listen to all the top 20 songs, and top 20 albums, even the rap albums. But I don’t like negative messages. If somebody is putting a lot of ego out there, I don’t like it. When I make my records I want it to be sincere Picture Quote #1

Rap is from the streets and I’m from the streets. That’s why a lot of people accept me Picture Quote #1

Growing up listening to rap music, you almost feel like you should have haters. That’s an important part of being a successful musician. It’s a good thing, I guess Picture Quote #1

I originally wanted to embrace the imagery and forthrightness of rap music. There are some interesting, dynamic voices in rap. But I find most of it irresponsible in its overt violence and commercialization of anger. As artists, we believe we can will action through language. If that’s the case, we have to take responsibility for what we say Picture Quote #1

I made the decision that I was going to make rap music in, like, fourth grade, so it’s been something I was saying for a long time Picture Quote #1

I loved rap, especially in the early days. But I wasn’t trying to shove it down anybody’s throats Picture Quote #1

I couldn’t do rap. I was trying. I don’t know how. I’m not good enough to know Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I would change really anything about rap. Rap don’t have no limits to it, and I like it like that Picture Quote #1

I came into the rap game in 1992; my life was changing, but my group wasn’t successful; I also saw the biggest rappers in the world die all of a sudden in the ensuing years, so it was a matter of conquering yourself before you can conquer the world Picture Quote #1

My fans will tell you all day that I can rap. That’s all I need Picture Quote #1
