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

People don't make albums any more. It's always about singles. I wanted to take that old-school approach.

I really want to do the unexpected, and I think that's what I did when I executed 'Long.Live.A$AP.' I wanted people to really see the message and that I'm an artist who not only has the capability of rapping, but of composing great music both for people of my generation and for people with different backgrounds.

I know that women are smarter than men. I don't wanna sound like I'm on a bandwagon for chicks but I do love 'em, can't front. Women are smarter than men. I know I gotta lot of chicks up my sleeve but you guys are twice as good.

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

I'm not a gangster, bro.

I would not consider myself to be a quote unquote real New York rapper. I don't even like New York rappers.
