Johnny Cash, Original Gangsta

April 24, 2007

I read this a while back and just remembered it. My favorite part is his advice for rappers who receive criticism:

“Ignore it,” Cash says. “Do what you do. You can’t let people delegate to you what you should do when it’s coming from way in here [taps heart]. I wouldn’t let anybody influence me into thinking I was doing the wrong thing by singing about death, hell and drugs. ‘Cause I’ve always done that. And I always will.”

There are some really good quotes in the article from rappers/rockers about Johnny Cash. I’d definitely recommend reading the whole thing.

Like Everlast said…”I’m cash like Johnny.”
