Tyler, The Creator

I want to do films and have my name mentioned next to Wes Anderson and Quentin Tarantino. I don't want my name mentioned next to other rappers at all.

I like my raps, but I'm never too happy with some of 'em because I feel like they could be better.

To me, Sid Vicious is cool. Super chill.

I don't really listen to rap; I just like to rap.

I wasn't shy, but I was really hyper. Nobody got my sense of humor. I was a black skater kid.

Hawthorne sucks... It's a crazy place, and I'm happy that I was the weird one that got out.

I'm hungry for VMAs and Grammys. That's my main goal.

I really want to sing, but my tone of voice is really too deep to do what I want.

I'm a big 'Goosebumps' fan - 'Revenge of the Lawn Gnomes.' My favorites are the pick-your-own-death ones.

I never had a drink in my life. I don't smoke or anything.

I just live life. I grew up in a Christian family, but, you know, the way Mom brought me up is to, you know, do you, to always be yourself.

Rap is really just too conventional. Everybody does the same thing. No one ever pushes the box.

I'm like a big 10-year-old when I'm on stage. I just go up there and do whatever I think is cool at the moment.

I think, if I had a dad, I would have went the normal college route. I'm so stoked my life panned out how it was.

I tweet early in the morning when I wake up or late at night just to let you know that I have a show or what's on my mind, and that's it. I hate Snapchat and all of that. It's making kids so stupid.

I want to make as much money as I possibly can so that when my day comes, my mother and sister is fine. My close friends are fine. They don't have to worry about anything ever again.

I want to design jewelry for girls and guys... I'ma spread it out, but I'ma design, probably when I'm just designing furniture and buildings, I'll probably being the jewelry thing, too.

Usually, when I'm rappin', I'm creating a big story or a concept song that sounds like a movie to me.

I don't like being put in a box. I just make music, you know?

I don't have a therapist, so I use me as my own therapist when I'm making the music.
