Since then, the hip-hop star, born Shawn Carter,addressed the cheatingmultiple times.
Were beyond friends, he said.
Like my little brother is Kanye and [with] your little brother, things happen sometimes.
The thing I respect about him is that he is the same person.
He was like, No, I am the savior of Chicago!'
She was asking a thousand questions and we had to leave for school, he explained.
He then recalled as they were driving, I just hear a little voice: Dad?
It hurt my feelings.
I was like, Thats the most beautiful thing you ever said to me.
It didnt work out because, for these guys, Carter realized it wasnt about the music.
Everyone got locked up and went to jail.
It really started as a competitive sport like basketball, he said.
Wed play each other.
It wasnt a hostile thing, he reiterated.
It was just, Lets make each other better.'
He further noted rappers were performing for the DJs.
Thats why all the DJs names came first in the songs, Carter pointed out.
It wasnt until the deaths of Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G.
that they realized everything became out of hand.
So he put in the work on the episode.
Now there are gonna be people that disagree and agree with this, which is cool.
He died by suicide following his release.
The rapper, who executive produced the series, met with Browder and thought he would make it.
Two weeks later, he received a call about his death.
It just sounds good.
It sounds really good.
Or you’re able to be someone like Eminem and just have [an] amazing cadence.
Almost like the syncopation… and theres percussion inside the music.
So, theres multiple ways to be really good, and some people just have it all.
