Young Thug

You have to be yourself.

When I was in high school, I had a gambling problem.

I like everything that people say. No matter what they say. You gay, you a punk. You got a nice girlfriend, you're ugly, you can't rap, you're the hardest.

I'm the type of person to put myself in everybody else's shoes.

When it comes to swag, there's no gender involved.

I ain't just collab-ing with anybody. Because I don't care about making friends. I got enough friends.

The reason why I moved from Young Thug to Jeffery was because I felt like I did a wrong turn.

I stayed in the ghetto. Then I stayed in condos, then I stayed in penthouses, and then I stayed in mansions.

I ain't want my kids to grow up and call me Thug. I don't want anybody to kind of look at me like that. So I'm gonna just use my real name.

I feel like there's no such thing as gender.

I don't want to rap forever. But I want to be rich forever.

I was in the streets at eight, nine years old.

Atlanta is the number one place to live. You live better, you eat better, the rides are better, vehicles is better deals. It's better people. More mean people, but at my level you want it to be about business, so it's perfect for me.

He's so sophisticated... Kanye is like 'Fifty Shades of Grey,' he's interesting, so you want to be around him.

Ninety percent of my clothes are women's.

It's dangerous to be anybody popular.

My dad wanted me to play football so bad, he took me to Washington High School on the west side of Atlanta because they were number one. They never lost.

I didn't used to do shows, because I used to be so shy. We'd perform, and I'd be at the back, thinking of another song. I was so shy, I ain't never getting in front of the camera; I would never get on stage.

My dad wouldn't buy me tight pants. I had to get my own money to buy them.

I hope to be like Bill Gates, bro. With all the money in the world.

We need money. We need hits. Hits bring money, money bring power, power bring fame, fame change the game.
