“My pops, he was mostly my biggest influence with Hip Hop,” said the XXX rapper. “I listened to whatever he would bring in the house, you know? And he brought Wu-Tang in the house. I missed the whole—the whole Diggin’ In The Crates stages. The whole Lord Finesse—I missed all that side of the East Coast rap cause I was listening to West Coast rap. I was listening to Spice 1 and E-40. And my dad he probably seen how that probably wasn’t a good influence on me at that time. Cause Wu-Tang still gave you thatedge, but they was still preaching like Five-Percent shyt. You know what I’m saying? So, they still had jewels inside the shyt. So, I know that’s what he wanted.”
