Did a track with him when I used to spit and also produced a couple tracks for him, also recorded a couple joints for him at my lil makeshift studio in a garage at our trap house in Jersey. We made it sound like gold tho. Good to see him doing his thing still. Keep it going my g. This Exel from Jersey by the way. I'm on my Call of Duty sht 😂

    You have to live it to understand it. Yes it's a persona. Yet from where he was to where he is now is testament to him using what he knows to his genuinely wanting to change for the better of himself. Actually at the same time serving as an ambassador for those who are lost as he was once and maybe give them the desire to make a change as well.

    Been clean for almost 6 years. I'm 43 and used heroin for 17 years. In 17' I lost my fiancé to an overdose 2 days after i lost my job and 12 days later, lost custody of my kids, permanently. God shook me out of His love for me and i woke tf up. I opened a Bible and ate and breathed it until the Lord came to me as a Father to the prodigal son...i just had to leave the pig trough and return to Him who made all things. Life isn't a game. Don't get caught dead without Christ y'all.

I live in u.k so I doubt we will get any one as sound as him. I wish him all the best and hope he gets as far as he would like to , he deserves it. He and his lovely mum seem so down to earth, she is so proud of her son and rightfully so, you can literally see the love she has for him. when she cried i wish i could of jumped into my screen and give her a big hug.Nems is a huge fitty ! & has a unique voice when he's rapping, & even just talking! love his accent too!
