Jeezy On Lil Boosie's Jail Time, "The Lil Homie Is Sitting In A Cell But He Was On Top Of The World"

Southern rapper Jeezy has reflected on Lil Boosie's current four-year jail sentence and said the incarcerated emcee was on top of the music game before getting placed
behind bars.

From Jeezy's perspective, hip-hop tend to become victims of success.

"I sit back and I just think, that the lil' homie [Lil' Boosie] is sitting there in a cell but he was on top of the world," Jeezy said in an interview. "In his lil' world in Lousiana he was that
n*gga. I used to tell him all the time your moves are big! And I done
went down there and hung out with him in the in
the streets and everything, I done been in his hood and everything, so
to me, it's a sad thing to see...So you know, it just come with the
territory, man, but it's just hard, dog, I used to hear cats like 8Ball
& MJG, Pac, all of them rap about what it used to be like
[when you get successful] and say what the h*ll? It can't be that bad.
Oh, it is. I see it now...If you ever listen to everybody's second or
third albums, it's pretty much the same story: 'these n*ggas tripping.'
I'm the same n*gga. I don't think you change, I just think the things
around you change." (VIBE)

Comment by CHICAGO(TARGET SQUAD) on April 9, 2010 at 2:14pm: it's crazy world , they expect a person to change because they getting paper, if your hood your hood, you can move out of the enviroment , but you can't move the enviroment out of you, and that's just what it is. like a nigga that's a snitch he's always going to be a snitch that's his enviroment, so yea we might live in the big house and drive the nice cars and all , might be living in different areas other then the hood but the hood is still living within us.....nough said
