I first heard him on Freddie Gibbs & Madlib - Shame (ft. BJ The Chicago Kid), ever since then I've been convinced that Freddie Gibbs and BJ The Chicago kid should release a collaboration album. Best non official rapper & singer duo right now imo. I might be pushing it but I think Freddie Gibbs & BJ are an even better collab than Snoop & the late Nate Dogg (R.I.P)
@Lthompson I be seein you everywhere fam haha well mostly on gibbs vids. Respect to yo pic Otakugang! Haha peep azizi gibson bruh you won't be disappointed.
From Texas my mom from Chicago and love the vibe the city gots way different from where I'm from but feels like home whenever I visit the city. Shoutout from San Antonio TX
I'm from Chicago I moved from Chicago in 97... I would always have much love for my city... BJ The Chicago kid keep giving us great music my brother... love your music.
He lowkey dropped a Madlib reference when he said that a music comes before the women if you've listened to shades of blue you know what I'm talking about
***** nigga please WE USED TO ROLL DICE WITH THE TEACHER AND TAKE THEY'RE MONEY!! HOLLA AT ME! 7 11 ALL DAY!! we know you hittig them snake eyes on the first roll bruh LOL jk
It strikes a nerve in me because I'm from Gary Indiana which is right outside of Chicago and I thought that his message was much needed and appreciated! Why the negativity? This brother spoke nothing but positivity and there are clowns on here that will try and taint it. Just stop it and appreciate something good and positive. PS.. he also sang background for Anthony Hamilton. Also Dilla is one of my fav producers of all time!
Reminds me of Lyfe Jennings n thts y I fucks wit em hard, a maywood nigga only a few miles from the chi n my high school Proviso East in the wood used to go at it wit Julian hard, much respect to the kid!!!💯 keep doing wut u doing my nigga!!!!
BJ, we have the same soul, I'm all about positive energy and keeping that with everyone I come across. I like to think I leave everyone I meet with something positive about myself or better yet themselves, therefore I can come across anyone from my past and just be cool. Negative energy is too consuming for the the soul, so why hate? Anyhow BJ, lots of love for you and your passion and I would most definitely accept and embrace you and of course your passion as it is mine as well. I truly feel we need to meet in life at some point, this energy is crazy. Much love, I look forward to more of your music. Please holla any time. Reach out BJ! Besitos!
Man, this dude is hella cool. Can listen to him talk for hours.
I remember first time hearing him from kendricks kush and corinthians singing the hook I knew he'd blow up. That voice is smooth as fuck.
Eyad Madani
My fault. I totally forgot that he had a whole verse. But that's one of my favorite songs from section 80! AYY
