Atlanta rapper 21 Savage says men lie, women lie but skin color doesn’t. The hip-hop newcomer has admitted his new Epic Records signing strongly comes from CEO L.A. Reid being black.
In a new interview, Sav explained his surprise partnership is much deeper than a business agreement.
“Yeah, I’m finna ink something up real soon. What you heard? [Epic Records?] Yeah, yeah, shout-out L.A. [Reid]. [I signed] ’cause he black. He black. He’s probably the last black CEO. How not? Why not? I know he’ll understand me before anyone else understands me. I ain’t just wanna sign on some straight business sh*t. I wanted to sign to someone who believes in me and understands me. They was adamant. Like, ‘We want you over here.’ Sh*t, we started f*cking with him. … He’s a legend.” (Rap Radar Podcast)
Recently, hip-hop star 50 Cent updated fans on possibly getting 21 Savage to fight rap foe 22 Savage.
Last week, 21 Savage dismissed the idea of lacing up and taking on 22.
“B*tch a** n*ggas remind me of my baby mama, man. Y’all f*ck n*ggas dying for attention like h*es. Get off a n*gga d*ck! I ain’t finna make none of you broke, dusty crumb chasing a** n*ggas famous, man. Peon peasant a** n*ggas. I ain’t even gonna make a n*gga famous, man. If I make a n*gga famous, n*gga gonna sign me.”

A few days prior, 50 Cent revealed his interest in making the bout go down.
“I just got off the phone with champ. So I’m going to give you the update, alright? We got a whole card now. We only had one fight. We had Chris Brown and Soulja Boy. Now we got – we’re trying to put together 21 Savage and 22 Savage. They’re going to fight for the name and then we’re only going to have one Savage.”
