“I’m irrational about all things creative and I’m always late!”

Pledge allegiance to the struggle.

Women in music have the bigger balls anyhow we endure much more harassment and critic.

First things first, I’m da realest.

My real name is Amethyst. It sounds like a stage name. My mom is kind of crazy.

As a child, I remember my dad would sometimes drive me into town with him to play pinball machines together. It’s a bittersweet memory but also a favorite.

I love purple because my name is Amethyst.

I found it to be kind of ironic, because I’m white, therefore I’m appropriating culture, but then Eminem won it – who’s white and won it many times – and they didn’t seem to say anything about that. I suspect it was just because they dislike me.

I think that music is still art, even if it’s commercialised.

Anyone’s happier when they’re not being verbally abused all day long.

Really good things take time to grow. Foundation is not built over night.

Whenever my country has something bad happening I feel guilty for not being there. It’s weird.

At the very worst, if I have a short-lived career, at least I could say I sparked a change – that I inspired some leniency in what people accept in hip-hop. And if I have a very long career and can be gyrating in a leotard at 35, that would be great.

Walk and talk with humility, but be fearless like a lion!

I’m not a writer with a drinking problem, I’m a drinker with a writing problem.

I don’t like to plan anything.

I keep hearing I’m a crazy party guy. I’m not. I’m boring. At least by party standards.

We do not become righteous by doing righteous deed but, having been made righteous, we do righteous deeds.

My mother was extremely controlled, sort of flawless. And I always tend to be a bit more hippie.
