I used to not like hip-hop as a kid.
I guess I just didn't understand it because I didn't understand English either.
But when I really started getting into hip-hop, was 2012, which funny enough, was Macklemore's
"Thrift Shop."
Someone showed it to me and I was like, this is so funny.
And I understood the words.
And I was just trying to be cool, trying to fit in with the American kids.
Like “Hell yeah.
I understand this.”
I didn't.
So, this was last year actually.
I was just...
I followed X on Twitter and I mentioned him on something and my manager was like, "Oh,
you fuck with X?"
And then, I'm like, “Yeah.
Of course.”
After a while, the whole shit happened where he went to jail and stuff.
So, we kind of sat on the track a little bit.
Then Keith Ape was like, "Yo, can I get on that?"
And I was like, “Of course.”
Because everybody was like, "You should collaborate with Keith Ape!
You guys are both fucking Asian and shit."
Alright, whatever.
Let's do it.
I counted them. It was right at 99.
I just got the news.
Like, "Yo.
X just got out last night.
But, don't tell anybody.
So, you should write your verse right now."
And I'm like, “Oh shit.”
So, that's why it took two days.
Jit is just a Florida term that I learned about on the Internet.
It just means a little baby or a little kid.
I do have 20/20 vision.
Everybody's always talking about.
It’s kind of a meme.
"Yo, I fuck with the vision.
I fuck with it.
I'm trying to build."
So I just thought that was a pretty funny thing to say.
I'm just trying to be really selective with my features because I'm just trying to make
it rare, you know?
So, when it does happen, I make sure it's really good.
I really hate when artists get on features, but they're super half assed about it.
About a month ago, or something, the governor, Ahok, that's his name, shoutout to him.
Shoutout to Djarot.
Both of these guys, they did a reaction video to "Dat $tick" and it was the craziest thing
ever.
I called my dad right away because he's a big fan of both of them.
So, there's a button they compress whenever they feel uncomfortable, and as soon as I
started cursing, he pressed it.
But, the thing is if you press the button, you get a penalty and his penalty was he had
to pose with a fanny pack and a polo shirt.
And he did it.
