When I spend money on myself, it's almost always on shoes and clothes. I'm addicted to shoes. I always have been, since I was a kid. When I was young, I could never get the shoes I really wanted. Matt Kemp addictclothekid Change image and share on social
In Hollywood, for me, it's all about the movie stars and the singers. Baseball players don't draw too much attention; we're low key. I'm good with faces and sometimes bad with names, but I'll walk up to somebody if I know who they are... show them some love. Matt Kemp attentionbadbaseball share on social
I'm always telling people baseball needs to be more prominent in the African American community. What a better way to do so, going on these TV shows and appearing on the cover of this or that. Now kids can see how baseball can change your life. Frank Thomas did that for me. Matt Kemp africanamericanappear share on social

I don't do stuff to be a star. I do it because I feel it's important for kids, African American kids, to see an African American face that plays baseball. Matt Kemp africanamericanbaseball Change image and share on social

If I could do it over, I'd want to come up to the big leagues like Mike Trout. He's exciting and I like watching him. Matt Kemp bigexcitleague Change image and share on social
If I'm in the car after a bad game, I may think about ways I need to improve. But the second I reach home, the game's over. Work doesn't come inside with me. Same thing in reverse - I don't bring my personal life into the ballpark. Learning to keep it all separate has made life easier. Matt Kemp badballparkbring share on social
