Bronson speaking on his "70-year old wise-guy" imagery:

Honestly, it's like I'm a big kid doing all these adult things and having an incredible time. My mind is so imaginative and expansive; I can't really explain it. It's like the cloud. Somehow these things happen. You don't know why, but it does.

On how he stays so unique:

"I've been rapping since I've been on the internet. My first couple of songs are on there, with a video from when I was younger. So I've kind of grown up in front of people. They can trace back, and I think people are very excited about where I am now. And, honestly, the type of artist that I am now is exactly what you say: I'm growing into myself. I don't really have outside influence from the game. I want to be totally different. I am totally different from everybody else already, so I just have to be myself. You can't follow the pack in this type of game. People write roles for you, for actors and stuff like that, but if someone found out someone was writing my raps, it'd be like the fucking end of the world. I'm just starting to get in the groove of things. I haven't totally hit my stride yet, so there's a lot more to come. I can sit in the big living room right here on a nice fucking leather couch from Jennifer Convertibles, and just get to do what I got to do."

On the whole body-slamming fans thing: 

"Man, listen. This is what happens, I have to protect myself. A lot of these little fucking towns, the security guards are, like, half my fucking size. I'm like 5'8", 5'9" on my best day in Timberlands. And these dudes are smaller than me; they're not doing shit, and kids get wild. They see one motherfucker do it, they get slammed violently, and it keeps on happening. They just want to be on World Star, or they just want to say, "Oh, Bronson slammed me!""
