I was angry about the fact that my father would beat my mother on a daily basis, that my mother would take it in turn and beat on me. I was an abused child. I was mad about all those things, very bitter and very angry.
Rick James

Rick James
If anything I consider myself non-violent, I'm from the hippy era, peace, love, groovy.
Rick James
You can't have rock and roll without drugs, you can't have rock and roll without sex.
Rick James
