The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Mark Ronson

  • I made my name and reputation DJing in hip-hop clubs in New York. ‘Celebrity DJ’ is a term that I hated. To me a celebrity DJ is someone that’s on ‘Big Brother’ or in some kind of B-movie who gets a gig to DJ even though they’re not talented enough to do it.
  • The cologne you pick should make you feel good when you go out with it. I think confidence comes across more than any other of our attributes.
  • I never studied jazz technically; I just know and love the music.
  • Being a die-hard Knicks fan, I remember hunting down these orange-and-blue Nikes that they only released in England. And I used to hunt for sneakers when I DJ’d in Japan. But then Nike flooded the market with a head-spinning array of color combinations and it just didn’t seem cool anymore.
  • I knew I wanted to be in music, but I didn’t know my role, so I did everything from interning at Rolling Stone to writing heavy metal fanzines to playing in a high-school band, and I think all those things probably helped in a way.
  • A ‘GQ’ award is kind of, like, insane. It’s a huge thing.
  • I’d be saying, ‘No, I’m so not a DJ, I’m a producer.’ But no matter how much faith you may have in yourself, until you have a hit you can’t really run around telling everyone you’re a producer.
  • I’d been DJ-ing in these clubs in N.Y. and I hated everything that was coming out. So I decided I would make it myself. People were making mash-ups or remixes, but I was extra bored, so I actually started remaking these records from scratch.
  • I’m always nervous before starting a record because I can never sleep. I’m like, ‘I have no good ideas, everyone is gonna see through me.’
  • Sometimes I have to shut off the omnipresent disco ball and flashing lights that are always in my head. It’s a part of maturing, I guess – just learning that it’s not just always about a quick, easy fix of getting people to dance.
