[With headlines generating off jacking fellow rapper 21 Savage’s rap moniker, 22 Savage takes a moment to speak to SOHH about his real-life murder charge and how he transitioned from viral comedy clips to gritty rapping.]
I just want to tell my fans that I’m going to be alright. I really can’t talk too much about my situation.
I’m going through some stuff. I’m on a murder charge right now. I can’t really go too much into details right now.
The rapping really just clicked for me. There’s more money in rapping anyway. Rapping has been my passion. The comedy sh*t had been taking too long.
Coming out of Baton Rouge, it’s like crabs in a bucket. N*ggas pulling one another down. I feel like if I’m taking this rap sh*t to a new level because I know I got rap talent.
While I got the fans, I figure I might as well transition. There’s nothing wrong with it.
