600 Breezy, how do you still maintain being a young OG? With everyone saying it<br />
is a young man’s game, how do you maintain staying relevant to the young guys<br />
but still keep your OJ The Juiceman flow?<br />
OJ: I don’t sugar coat my shit. My shit is not watered down. My shit is 1000 like 100<br />
proof liquor. I’m going to tell you how it is, what it is, and how it’s going to be. As<br />
long as I stay in that lane, folks is going to feel the real. Some times folks feel the<br />
fake but when it’s real and thorough and from the heart folks gone respect the real<br />
no matter what.<br />
<strong>OHM</strong>: As long as you have been around and I know you have had some big<br />
records, but do you ever think about the what if’s. Like, wanting to touch that<br />
mainstream status and wanting to be a part of the Drake levels or Rick Ross<br />
levels? Does or has that ever crossed your mind? Is that something you ever<br />
wanted to do?<br />
OJ: That’s cool. I am not tripping on doing that but if it takes me to lie in my raps<br />
then I’m not with it.<br />
<strong>OHM</strong>: So what I am gathering is win, lose, or draw, OJ Da Juiceman is going to<br />
be who he is, who he was, and always will be?<br />
OJ: Yeah man Im going to stay the same standup guy you first met. Im not gone ever<br />
change, just the music, but I’m going to stay the same. I’m like Chinese food, same<br />
thang, same thang.<br />
<strong>OHM</strong>: For those who know, for those who have been fans, and for those who is<br />
listening; just like how you did with the Chinese food quotes, you have always<br />
been clever with the word play and the quotes. Almost along the lines of the<br />
E40’s. Like how E40 always comes up with different slang and new ways of<br />
talking. Where do you draw that from? How do you come up with the way you<br />
come across?<br />
OJ: Its hard to say. Back in school I was a class clown muthafucka. I turned a bad day<br />
into a good day and made you laugh at the end of the day. I just put it together like<br />
when it comes to my head I just say it and if it sounds funny it is what it is.<br />
<strong>OHM</strong>: You basically have been the Messiah mixtape wise. I remember a long time<br />
ago when you did the Freshmen cover you said your goal is to do 32 mixtapes<br />
and you have kind of surpassed that dominating the mixtape era. What’s next?<br />
OJ: Supporting folks that support me. The reason why I do free mixtape is for me to<br />
turn back around and sell you something. You have to give away something free to<br />
sell something. I feel like if I give you 30 or 40 free mixtapes then what the hells wrong<br />
with going to buy 3 or 4 albums that I have put out.<br />
