Rap Quotes by Nellie McKay

Nellie McKay

I do think there’s a great deal of politics mixed in rap. Their reference to the real world is much better than most, particularly a lot of women who seem like all they do is sing about love. Love is such a fleeting emotion. It’s such a small part of the things you do in your life. I don’t understand why that’s all they concentrate on, except that that’s what they’re encouraged to do, because if you keep thinking about love, you’ll be less of a challenge. I like that about rap. It’s got power to it.

I don’t listen to much rap, really. I can rarely listen to a whole record of it, because musically, it’s very formulaic, and oftentimes it doesn’t have the best hooks on every track. I like my music to be very musical.

In terms of content, a lot of rap is crap, with all the sexism and homophobic bullshit. It’s incredible how rappers are always preaching nonconformity – you know, “I’m just gonna go my own way and be my own man and blah blah blah” – but they’re the first ones to do so many things that they have to do. They have to do that hip-hop thing, a certain way of walking, and it’s so conformist.
