Will.I.Am's Quotes
- We're from the projects - East L.A. On welfare the majority of our lives. A lot of my friends are dead and in prison, just like any urban person that comes from areas like I'm from. But my grandma was super-grandma. Ain't nobody mess with our family in my neighborhood because everybody loved my grandma. She was the one that prayed for everybody. We were one of the first families in the projects. And I moved them out. Music allowed me.
- You want to play stadiums? You listen to U2. You study it for harmonics, the vocal placement, the freaking chord progressions, their lyrics. You study the production. You study it because studying that equals stadiums.
- I'm good at thinking outside the box, so much that you realize it's not a box to begin with.
- I was born and raised in the ghetto, on welfare, two minutes from homeless.
- I just like seeing kids inspired.
