On his sudden weight loss:
“My best-friend growing up lived across the street from me he actually died of cancer. That is what inspired me to actually commit to the project. In my head I was trying to make it as accurate as it was how he looked to me. It was tough like after like the third week.”
On him and Dr. Dre not working together:
“I don’t know where that came from. I think it came from maybe him being in the studio with Game. And that is like…I still haven’t heard anything from the time dash was spent in there. So you don’t know how positive or negative or what that was. I still haven’t heard his record.”
