YOUNG THUGI am always with London On Da Track, Wheezy, 808 Mafia Mike Will Made It, Ricky Racks.
YOUNG THUGI never write. Never! I do not even remember if I can write.
YOUNG THUGAll those who came out of my neighborhood before me. Beyond those you see on TV, the most important people are those who are close to you because they share the same reality.
YOUNG THUGI always knew I could rap, and in a sense, I always rapped. And I’ve always behaved like a rapper. But I started to take it seriously when I recorded with the people of Brick when I started to receive some money.
YOUNG THUGThis is where the guys who copy me are planted: I do not use auto-tune, I sing. That’s my advice!
YOUNG THUGAn album is a project with which you have to hit hard.
YOUNG THUGI ain’t want my kids to grow up and call me Thug. I don’t want anybody to kind of look at me like that.
YOUNG THUGIt’s a pretty crazy thing in which I tried to make songs, real songs, not the quick stuff like on tape. A dose of Kendrick Lamar, a dose of J. Cole, because it’s got to be an album that goes in the club.
YOUNG THUGI just put anything on my back. I take what I have on hand.
YOUNG THUGWhen it comes to swag, there’s no gender involved.
YOUNG THUGThis is the industry that wants music, the rap industry. You have to be on deck all the time, but you do not have the time to do the album. It is an energy; it must be present in everyday life.
YOUNG THUGA mixtape is for the street, it’s something you without necessarily thinking about it because you have to stay in the game. It’s like writing an e-mail saying hello to your friends.
YOUNG THUGI know I have this image but in reality, if you take all my records, I had to use five or six tracks.
YOUNG THUGI spend more time with Gucci Mane or Birdman than 300, but all this is just family. Who cares about contracts?
YOUNG THUGI’m signed to Atlantic through 300 Entertainment Lyor Cohen’s label. That is my only contractual relationship.
YOUNG THUGWe need money. We need hits. Hits bring money, money brings power, power brings fame, fame change the game.
