“Purple lipstick? Naw, that looks stupid on all girls!”

When I started, I was 23 years old directing my own music videos; I’m co-producing on my album; I’m hands-on with everything. I’m more than just a pretty boy: I’m an artist. I’m not saying I’m a hip-hop music artist, I’m an artiste.

Why can’t I be friends with somebody who’s gay? Why not? You can miss out on a lot by being so small-minded and stereotypical about people. It’s stupid.

I dress how I feel. I just go off emotion. I can’t prepare my outfit a day before. Everything I wear is spontaneous.

I didn’t want to be a loser, but I didn’t want to fit in at the same time because I don’t like just being ordinary. So it’s one of those situations where I always kept my head up.

With clothes, I like mixing what different designers do until it becomes a personal expression of how I’m feeling that day.

When Big Meech and everybody got indicted, hustling died. Keep it trill.

You wouldn’t take me to be a Skrillex fan, but honestly, when I’m at his shows, I get high and liquored up, and I just go in the crowd and start raving.

I’m getting my respect as a video director. The fashion industry respects me and knows who I am.

So for me, fashion was about standing out as an individual – and it helped me get the attention that most people try to get with publicity stunts or by doing other crazy things. But I just let the attention come to me naturally, and I think some of that has to do with my fashion.

I love ‘Harry Potter’ and JK Rowling – don’t laugh at me!

The worst thing a good girl could do to you is break your heart.

I wanna make music that I feel proud of when I’m onstage, that I feel like I put my all into.

Rihanna is a pothead and so am I, so we’re real cool. Weed is going to bring us together as a generation. Drugs is what created Woodstock. Let’s be clear about that.

I was thinking about naming my child Kanye.

I don’t care what straight people do, I don’t care what gay people do. I don’t care what nobody do. That’s they business. I just care about what I do. You know what I’m saying?

I don’t care what straight people do, I don’t care what gay people do. I don’t care what nobody do. That’s they business. I just care about what I do. You know what I’m saying?

And I’ve been hurt hurt bad. I might be just twenty-six, but I’m an old woman in disguise twenty-six goin’on sixty-five.

Things aren’t always as they seem – Jesus had to die to rise from the grave.

I’m a big woman. I need big hair.

I usually go to sleep with wet hair. When I wake up, it either has a really pretty wave, or I look like a poodle.

We should always be disposed to believe that that which appears white is really black, if the hierarchy of the Church so decides.

Let a series of happy thoughts run through your mind. They will show on your face.

What matters is not your outward appearance but your inner disposition. Cultivate inner beauty, the gentle gracious kind that God delights in.

Now I will show myself to have more of the serpent than the dove; That is–more knave than fool.
