I don't sit under the tattoo gun unless I'm sold on it completely and it will define me as a person.
From Yelawolf
Triple 6 Mafia and Mystikal in Atlanta was one of my first shows. I remember how sweaty and smashed up everybody was, and it was so punk rock.
'Yela' represents hunger, life, light, fire, power. 'Wolf' speaks to my fighting spirit. The soul I put in my music.
Shady's great; I love Shady Records.
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.
I'm never scared what people are gonna think about music that I make.
I think any artist that's going to become anything in this world faces humility: with great humility comes great success.
I just picked up a lot of classic-rock, melodic influence from my mom, music that she listened to, like 10,000 Maniacs, Led Zeppelin, REO Speedwagon and Yes.
I equally love both, classic rock and hip-hop. I love all music, really, and I really use classic rock a lot. I'm heavily influenced by that melodically in my music. I can't really separate the two.
'Radioactive' is the fall out of my life's inspirations, a testament to my ability to survive it all and to tell the story.
