MD : Being a gangbanger Entering The Industry is bittersweet . Do you feel like that’s a weight you hold on your shoulders ? 

Do you let the streets interfere with music ? 

No it’s not a weight. It’s a plus . I use it as marketing . You never know who from the same side in the industry .

I use to let it interfere when I was young. 

MD : We listen to you a lot around the office and we noticed On your song , titled “Yesterday” you spoke on an elderly lady getting shot being mistaken for you . Is that facts ? Did that really occur ? 

Yeah she got shot. I’m not sure the motive. It was one story they was looking for me . 

Another that it was some Norfolk beef .
