G.O.O.D. Music’s Big Sean might believe he’s the best rapper alive, however, he knows where his roots all stem from. Sean Don recently talked about his all-time favorite albums.
In a new interview, Sean admitted projects dating back to Jay Z‘s 1998 Life & Times Volume 2…Hard Knock Life album.
“Eminem’s The Slim Shady LP (1999), Jay Z’s Volume 2… Hard Knock Life (1998), DMX’s Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood (1998), and Kanye West’s The College Dropout (2004). I loved “Last Call.” I heard that and I was like, “I have to make it, there’s no other choice.”” (Radio)
This week, Sean revealed how he managed to get a Roc-A-Fella chain from Jay Z.
“Hov said he made it,” Sean said referring to the chain. “I never thought I’d have a Roc-A-Fella chain, just to keep it real. It was always one of those things growing up, you want a Roc-A-Fella chain, it was like one of the most iconic chains to me growing up. Honestly. Eh, there’s a couple other crazy ones. No Limit. But the Roc-A-Fella chain I feel was second to none. I remember, what happened was I was just having a conversation with him about it. Jay Z. I don’t remember exactly what [we said] but then all of a sudden he hit me and was like, ‘You know, what size you want? What size chain you looking for? Full size or mid-size?’ I’m like, ‘Full size!’ And anyway, he gave it to me and he hit me like, ‘Go pick it up from the jeweler,’ and was just like, you earned it man.” (“The Breakfast Club”)
Earlier this month, Sean showed off his iced-out chain.
This week, Sean sent a friendly message to anyone sleeping on his new I Decided album.
