Master P signed him to No Limit in 2001. Then he was the first artist Lil Wayne signed to Young Money in 2006. Dame Dash signed him to his first post-Rocafella label, DD172. He was a founding father of the Blog Era and is still relevant in 2023. It's time for a documentary. twitter.com/rapfavorites/s…

Yep, I started preparing to get laid off on Day 1. Not because I didn't have faith in Vox or didn't believe in its mission. Not because I doubted my ability to make a positive impact or thought I would fail. It's because I'm not interested in building my house on rented land.
