I ain’t gonna lie-he gave me mad Bad Boy music dumb early, the Lil Kim " No matter what people say," all these songs I heard before they even came out. Remember the Biggie album with the Eminem "Dead Wrong" remix ? He gave us that early. I had one of the jerseys on in the " Hella Hoes" video-the Pistol Pete jersey.īuckwild gave us wild throwback jerseys and shit like that.

I didn’t know until one day my pops brought me a bag full of throwback jerseys. My pop would run in and out, drop him off.
Your cousin is Buckwild. Did you know about his music and his crew Diggin In The Crates and all that growing up? I came back to school, Yams was like, 'Stack Bundles died.' I’m on my way to school, crying. That whole day I caused hell and almost got kicked out of school again. I think the day I came back to school, Yams was like, "Stack Bundles died." I’m on my way to school, crying. I got kicked out of school, but my mother fought for me to stay in school. I was about two weeks away from graduating. You were just winding up high school when he died, right? He didn’t have no trash music, and this was when a lot of people was getting put on and they was trash. was a press conference and he had Jay-Z there, Jadakiss, he had mad people there. Then I went and bought the Rap’s Makeover CD myself. I said, Italian icey? I’m not into jewelry, I ain’t got no money, I know what Italian icey is. Stack Bundles rapped on it talking about rainbow colored diamonds all looking like Italian icey. So right now I just get em to 12.Īfter "Y’all Niggas Is Trash," he freestyled on "Bad News," and "Bad News" was one of my favorite G-Unit songs. If I got 2127301090 I gotta go through it, I gotta say it fast, I gotta break it down. Why change the title? Were you worried about too many prank calls to the number? The original title of the album was 2127301090, which isn't actually a phone number-it had a longer explanation behind it. I’m around the house like, " Put it in your mouth" and she's like, "Put what? What are you talking about?" I’m like, "I don’t know," and I got my ass whooped. So she had two daughters and I’m the oldest one in the house. I was young and my aunt just had another daughter. It was Akinyele who got you in all that trouble?Īkinyele got me in trouble, yeah.
I was like, Yo I’m about to listen to All American Rejects." I’m in the projects, I'm in Kingdome basketball games listening to pop music while the hood is around me, and it just took me somewhere else. I never was like, Yo, I’m about to listen to this rap album. Man, I remember listening to All American Rejects, Alien Ant Farm, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, watching the Gorillaz on TV every day. So there was a lot of teen pop and whatever was on the radio and MTV.īackstreet Boys, 'NSync. I could not listen to hip-hop for quite a long time. "Yea Yea Yea" is the only song that I put my rock and pop culture influences around. So I wanted to know which song on the album was most influenced by the Backstreet Boys. There was a period of time growing up where you were banned from listening to rap, so you listened to other stuff instead. The first thing I wanted to ask you is very serious. I sat down with Twelvyy, 28, at the Complex office to get an idea of how the album came to be-and what a certain cold-remedy-inspired viral hit had to do with anything. Twelvyy's brand-new album 12 paints a picture of his life growing up in Harlem and then in the Castle Hill (or "Castle Hell," as the opening song has it) section of the Bronx, finding his crew, and the triumphs and tragedies that occurred along the way-the most notable of the which is Yams' death in 2015. With the solo stardoms of ASAP Rocky and ASAP Ferg firmly established, it's Twelvyy's turn. Jamel "ASAP Twelvyy" Phillips was, along with ASAP Yams, one of the founders of the ASAP Mob, the crew that's taken over its hometown of NYC, and much of the world as well.
