Catfish Billy, a.k.a. Yelawolf Quotes

Well, lookee here. Orlando’s got Yelawolf coming in next Tuesday, right after finals are over. Ain’t that a coincidence?

To get warmed up and ready for Catfish Billy to take over on 4/24/12, I’ve delved into Yela’s back catalogue and brushed up on his history. I’ve been a Yelawolf fan since right before 0-60 Trunk Music dropped. Where else in the rap scene can you get a rapper talkin’ about the country scene that I’m familiar with? Sure, there’s the Bubba Sparxxx and Nappy Roots of the world, but no one before Yela has captured the essence of the dirty, grimy, hardcore South as Yelawolf has. When I listen to Yelawolf, I’m transported to an alternate universe where country folk are cooking meth in the kitchen, and everyone’s got more guns than dogs. This ain’t no Jason Aldene country, this is deepwoods, hog-butchering country music.

Hit the jump for some of Yela’s background and quotes.

Yelawolfis from Gadsden, Alabama – turns out, he was on a reality show called The Road to Stardom with Missy Elliot in 2005, before he blew up. His original couple of albums were released on Ghet-O-Vision Entertainment; he got signed to Shady Records in 2011, and his debut full length album “Radioactive” dropped on Nov. 11, 20111.

Enjoy these Yelawolf quotes!
