“The biggest difference between this and the classic Trap or Die, there’s a lot of people here during Trap or Die 1. Unfortunately, a lot of them are dead or in jail. It’s was a whole different time. Everybody was rich. It ain’t like that no more. I felt I had to feed the streets. Everybody is on their way back up, trying to get their money right. Get their situation right. We just come out the recession. I wanted to give them something to ride to. You gonna have your music for the clubs, but I wanted to give them something that touches them [in their heart].”
At first I didn’t like the cover either, but now it all makes sense.
